Photodegradation of 5-flurouracil, carvedilol, para-chlorophenol and methimazole with 3D MnWO4 nanoflower modified Ag2WO4 nanorods: A non-genotoxic nanomaterial for water treatment

Solvent effect on the photolysis of 5‐fluorouracil: A kinetic study

“…The photochemistry of 5‐FU has been studied by different workers and the reaction pathways for the photodegradation are reported 35–43,83–89 . 5‐FU under UV light irradiation follows two pathways for the formation of its photodegradation products.…”

“…The photochemistry of 5-FU has been studied by different workers and the reaction pathways for the photodegradation are reported. [35][36][37][38][39][40][41][42][43][83][84][85][86][87][88][89] 5-FU under UV light irradiation follows two pathways for the formation of its photodegradation products. In the first pathway, it is directly photodegraded into a ring cleavage product (C 3 H 4 FNO 2 ).…”

“…Fenton and photo‐assisted oxidation (UV/H 2 O 2 , UV/Fe 2+ /H 2 O 2 , UV/TiO 2 ) of 5‐FU has been carried out and it completely degrades in 2 h 38–40 . Photocatalytic oxidation of 5‐FU was carried out using TiO 2 /NF, 41 3D MnWO 4 /AgWO 4 nanorods, 42 TiO 2 /RGO, 43 and Bi‐B‐Co/TiO 2 44 . 5‐FU in alkaline solution undergoes hydrolysis to form barbituric acid which is further degraded into degradation products 45–49 .…”

Ag2WO4 as a multifunctional material: Fundamentals and progress of an extraordinarily versatile semiconductor

“…Hence, it is necessary to tune this characteristic to enhance efficiency in diverse applications, and the oxide/Ag 2 WO 4 composite has been used for this purpose. Composite systems with simple oxides such as Ag/ (ZnO, [205], MnWO 4 /Ag 2 WO 4 [206], Ag 2 WO 4 /CeO 2 [207], a-Ag 2 WO 4 /Ag 3 PO 4 [208], CoOeAg 2 WO 4 [209,210], ZnBi 2 O 4 /Ag 2 WO 4 ) [211], and Ag 2 WO 4 /(TiO 2 ,ZnO)/AgX (X ¼ Cl, Br, I) [187e189] have been obtained for diverse synthetic routes. These last three heterojunctions have been described in the present work in the section on composites with Ag 2 WO 4 crystals and halogenbased materials.…”

Breaking the barrier: a MnWO4 photocatalyst enables solar chlorine production from seawater without noble metals

“…MnWO 4 is not only widely used in photocatalysis, but also has attracted researchers' attention due to its unique electrical and magnetic properties. According to relevant reports on the photocatalysis of MnWO 4 , we have found that it is a narrow band gap material (E g = 2.1-2.68 eV [16][17][18] ). As a photocatalyst for HClO production, its valence band (VB) needs to meet the oxidation potential of the chlorine evolution reaction (eqn (1)).…”
