Most of the photocatalytic materials are prepared by wet chemical methods and calcination methods. These preparation methods usually have the problems of slow reaction speed and low crystallinity of products, which seriously restrict the development of photocatalytic technology. Molten salt method (MSM) has attracted much attention of researchers because of its unique advantages in optimizing the synthesis route of photocatalyst. Herein, the application of molten salt technology in the preparation of photocatalytic materials in recent years is summarized. The advantages of MSM in photocatalytic synthesis, such as promoting crystallization, adjusting morphology, accelerating the construction of heterostructure, stabilizing single atom, doping auxiliary elements and adjusting defect position, are also discussed in detail. It is indicated that MSM has important application potential in the preparation of photocatalytic materials. Meanwhile, the research achievements and existing problems of MSM are summarized, and suggestions for further application of MSM in photocatalyst's preparation are put forward.
