In this work, composites of BiOCl with activated carbon (AC) were prepared via hydrothermal synthesis under environmentally benign conditions using water as solvent. The as-prepared samples then characterized by different techniques such X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy (EDX), Raman and UV–Vis Diffuse Reflectance Spectroscopy. compositio...

ABSTRACT. Rhodamine B (RhB) is one of the prominent dyes discovered to be carcinogenic and mutagenic substance present in ecosystem. Alteration characteristics TiO2 through modification with clay influences behavior some organic molecules at its surface, thus photocatalytic properties. This study investigates degradation RhB using TiO2-activated kaolinite composite (TiO2-AKC). TiO2-AKC was prep...
