“…The PCA analysis was performed for the groups with a defined endpoint expressed as phenol photodegradation rate (λ, μmol·dm −3 ·min −1 ) under VIS and UV-VIS light ( Table S2 ). Thus, the final PCA analysis was performed for clusters selected from HCA ( Figure 1 ), such as: (A) well-ordered nanotubes in the presence of different types of ionic liquids (TiO 2 /ILs) [ 13 ], (D) rare-earth metals-modified TiO 2 NTs (TiO 2 /REE) [ 16 ], (E) calcinated titanium dioxide nanotubes [ 21 ], (F) monometallic-modified TiO 2 (Er, Yb, Ho, Tb, Gd, Pr, Cu, Ag, Bi, Pt), bimetallic modified (AgCu), and BiS quantum dots modified TiO 2 NTs [ 17 , 22 , 23 ], (G) self-organized TiO 2 interlaced with silver nanoparticles (TiO 2 /Ag 2 O) [ 15 ], (H) nitrogen-doped TiO 2 NTs (TiO 2 /N) [ 14 ], and nanotubes modified with the presence of ionic liquids in different conditions (TiO 2 /ILs) [ 11 , 12 ] ( Figure 1 ). Thus, the final PCA analysis was prepared for 32 TiO 2 -based NTs.…”
