Mesoporous gadolinium doped titania photocatalyst through an aqueous sol–gel method

Preparation of thermally stable anatase TiO2 photocatalyst from TiOF2 precursor and its photocatalytic activity

“…Among various oxide semiconductor photocatalysts, titania has attracted increasing attention due to its biological and chemical inertness, strong photo oxidization power, cost effectiveness, and long-term stability against photo and chemical corrosion [1,[8][9][10][11][12][13][14]. Now many proposed innovative and commercial applications for photocatalytically active stable titania-coated materials such as bathroom tiles, sanitary wares, and self-cleaning glass for the control of organic contaminants require high processing temperatures and hence high-temperature stability [13,14].…”

Effect of Nd2O3 addition on the surface phase of TiO2 and photocatalytic activity studied by UV Raman spectroscopy

“…Anatase and rutile are TiO 2 polymorphic forms which are relevant in photocatalytic applications [4,5]. Anatase is usually considered to be more active than rutile.…”

Composition and phase control of Ni/NiO nanoparticles for photocatalytic degradation of EDTA

“…For example, several works dedicated to the photocatalytic degradation of reactive brillian red using borondoped titania [11], catalytic decomposition of methylene blue on doped-TiO 2 nanoparticles [12,13], photocatalytic activity of nanostructured ZnO films for decolorization of malachite green [14] are recently reported. The main advantage of applying such a technique is its capability to convert the organic pollutants into nontoxic species such as CO 2 and H 2 O.…”
