Nano-sized TiO 2 /MoO 3 /carbon clusters composite material has been successfully obtained by the calcinations of a TiO(acac) 2 /MoO 2 (acac) 2 /epoxy resin complex under an oxygen atmosphere. The compositions of the resulting composite materials were determined using inductively coupled plasma (ICP) spectroscopy, elemental analysis and surface characterization by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The ultraviolet–visible (UV–Vis), X-ray photoelectron spectra (XPS) and electron spin resonance (ESR) spectra of the composites were also measured. ESR spectra of the composite materials suggest that they have visible light-responsive catalytic ability with an electron transfer process of carbon clusters → MoO 3 → carbon clusters → TiO 2 .
