Abstract:Bisphenol A (BPA) is worldwide used to produce plastics and/or epoxybased foodstuff packages. But it is known that this compound is considered as a quite toxic contaminant due to (1) its similarity to the hormone estrogen and (2) its universal use in many industrial proceses. In our study the photodegradation of BPA stimulated by tin(IV) oxide-modified silica-titania nanocomposites was investigated. The reactions were characterized by the kinetic parameters (pseudo-first constant k 1 0.036-0.0896Á10for non-cal… Show more
