• ZrO2 nanotubes with different diameters were prepared by anodization.
• The photoluminescence properties of the as-prepared ZrO2 nanotubes and that annealed at 400 °C were tested.
• The photocatalytic properties of ZrO2 nanotubes were presented.
Highly ordered ZrO2 nanotube arrays have been fabricated by anodization at different voltages between 20–50 V. Photoluminescence of the as-prepared freestanding ZrO2 membrane were tested and photocatalytic activities of ZrO2 nanotube arrays were characterized by quantifying the degradation of methyl orange dye solution. It was found that the as-prepared samples exhibited two types of photoluminescence peaks, one is stable peaks and another is unstable peaks which shift with the excitation wavelength. In the samples annealed at 400 °C, only stable peaks are presented. The decolorization percentage decreases with a higher solution concentration, while increases with a larger diameter of ZrO2 nanotubes.
