Enhanced piezo-photocatalytic properties of new salophen based Ti (IV) complexes

Electrocatalytic and photocatalytic activity of CuTiO3 perovskites for complete degradation of methylene blue under sunlight irradiation

“…A little drop in degradation efficiency may be seen, which might be attributed to a loss of catalyst quantity during the recollection process after each cycle. 36 Also, several variables may have contributed to the decline in photocatalytic activity shown in the fifth cycle. Over repeated cycles, the catalyst may become inactive or unclean because of an accumulation of reaction by-products, leaching (see the ESI †), or changes to the catalyst's chemical or structural properties.…”

“…Around 800 000 tons of dyes are used annually worldwide for a variety of purposes, including cosmetics, printing, textile colouring, and paper, among others; nevertheless, during the dyeing process, 20% of the dyes are lost, 2 which are carcinogenic and harm the aquatic ecosystem and all organisms, even at extremely low concentrations. 3 Methylene blue (MB) is very toxic and carcinogenic and is widely utilized in a variety of industries, such as textile, food, printing, paper, detergent, and coating production, laboratories, and the medical sector. In some species, exposure to MB has been linked to haematological toxicity, the development of Heinz bodies, and even haemolytic anaemia.…”
