Abstract SiO 2 x:ZnO: (1-x)TiO nanocrystallites were made via sol-gel route, and co-firing at a lower temperature (600 o C). The synthesized characterized using several analytical techniques including XRD, SEM/TEM, FT IR, THz, UV–visible spectroscopy analysis. results appear that the silicate phase was used to promote density of nanocrystalline ceramic during calcination. calcined (∼600 C) cons...

Often, H2 is produced photocatalytically at the expense of sacrificial agents. When a agent selectively oxidized, this allows coupling production with synthesis value-added organic compounds. Herein, it argued that conversion bioethanol into 1,1-diethoxyethane simultaneous increases economic viability photocatalysis and suggests semiconductor material most relevant for purpose.

In this study, photocatalytic degradation of paracetamol (acetaminophen), an analgesic and antipyretic drug, was investigated in using semiconductors under UV-B sunlight irradiation. Semiconductor materials, Bi2O3, ZnO, TiO2, ZrO2, were prepared simple sol-gel, coprecipitation, microwave synthesis methods. These photocatalyts characterized by various spectroscopic other techniques. As a result ...

CuMn2O4 nanoparticles, a semiconducting materials with tunable functionalities in solid oxide fuel cell, was successfully synthesized via a sol-gel method using its respective metal cations sources i.e. Cu2+ and Mn2+ in an appropriate complexing agent.The vibrational frequencies below 1000 cm-1 of the obtained materials confirmed the formation of metal-oxygen (M-O:Cu-O, Mn-O) bond in the sample...

This study reviews recent research on the synthesis and application of titanium dioxide (TiO2)-based photocatalysts for environmental applications. The principles non-homogenous photo-catalysis include utilizing a solid semiconductor, such as Nano or macro, to form stable suspension (heterogeneous phase) at impact irradiation elevate reaction surface interface different phases in system.
