This paper reported for the first time a comparative study of the photocatalytic activity of the Keggin-type Mn(II)-substituted heteropolyanion PW₁₁O₃₉Mn^II(H₂O)^{5鈥?/sup> (PW₁₁Mn) and its heterogeneous system PW₁₁Mn/D301R through the degradation of rhodamine B (RhB) under visible light irradiation. A novel photocatalytic mechanism was suggested, and an interaction between PW₁₁Mn and RhB was scrutinized by using visible absorption spectrum and fluorescence emission spectrum. Influences of some factors such as the RhB initial concentration, the PW₁₁Mn concentration, the PW₁₁Mn/D301R dosage, the solution pH, and different anions existing in solution on the photocatalytic degradation rate of RhB were also examined. The stability of PW₁₁Mn/D301R was evaluated by the cycle photodegradation of RhB in the end. The experimental results showed that 100% of RhB degradation was reached at 100 min for the PW₁₁Mn system and 40 min for the PW₁₁Mn/D301R system when the solution containing 10 渭mol路L鈥?RhB was exposed to visible light. The hydroxyl radicals were responsible for the destruction of dye. The photocatalysis mechanism was different from that of both semiconductor and Keggin parent catalysts. An electrostatic interaction and a coordination interaction between PW₁₁Mn and RhB occurred simultaneously in an acidic aqueous solution. The coordination interaction slowed significantly the RhB degradation, but became weak obviously after PW₁₁Mn was adsorbed onto the D301R resin. The influence of anions existing in solution on the RhB degradation followed the sequence of PO₄3鈥?/sup> > SO₄2鈥?/sup>> Cl鈥?/sup>> NO₃鈥?/sup>. No matter if in neutral or in acidic aqueous solution, the photocatalyst PW₁₁Mn/D301R was stable.}
