A photocatalyst was obtained by treating the commercial amorphous anatase titanium dioxide with ammonia water. During the preparation of photocatalytic material the optimal conditions of the separation operation were found. The photocatalyst was characterized by UV/VIS-DR, FTIR-DR, and XRD techniques, and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HR-TEM). According to the XRD method, th...

Co3O4-coated commercial TiO2 powders (P25) p-n junction photocatalysts were prepared by plasma-enhanced atomic layer deposition (PEALD) technique. The structure, morphology, bandgap, and photocatalytic properties under ultraviolet light were investigated systematically. Although the deposition of Co3O4 does not change the anatase structure and crystallite size of P25 powders, the ultraviolet ph...

Carbon nanotube-In2O3 nanocomposites were synthesized by sol-gel method with the help of ultrasonic radiation. The samples were characterized by X-ray diffractometer, transmission electron microscopy and energy dispersive spectrometer. The UV absorbing properties were detected by the UV spectrophotometer. Photo degradation of methylene blue in aqueous solution was investigated by using CNT/In2O...

this paper presents the findings of experimental investigations into the effects of cutting speed, feed rate, depth of cut and approach angle on the machinability of titanium (grade-5) alloy. also the comparison for the two different cutting materials inserts polycrystalline diamond (pcd) and cubic boron nitride (cbn) with similar tool geometry for similar machining parameters is also carried o...

The present study reports, the synthesis of ZnO-bentonite nanocomposite by the incorporation of ZnO with bentonite clay. The nanocomposite was characterised by XRD and SEM. ZnO-bentonite was effectively used for removal of Methylene Blue (MB). Removal of MB takes place by photocatalytic degradation and adsorption. Photocatalytic degradation of MB occurs by advanced oxidation process. The factor...

Immobilization of catalysts on the surface of some inert supports makes therecovering step easier. Because of the specific physicochemical properties, zeolites are good candidate as catalyst supports. In this study, zeolite X was synthesized by natural kaolin and TiO2 was incorporated into zeolite phase by impregnation method. Degradation of Safranin Orange, methylene blue and 2,4–di...

Hollow structure LiNb3O8 photocatalysts were prepared by a hydrothermal method assisting sintering process. The particles' aggregation to form hollow structures with obvious cavities can be attributed to the Li element volatilization during calcination process. All the LiNb3O8 powders show high photocatalytic efficiency of degradation of methylene blue (MB), especially for the sample calcined a...

In this research, Carbon-doped TiO2 nano-photocatalyst is synthesized via sol-gel technique and photo-catalytic degradation of phenol has been studied under ultraviolet and visible light irradiation in a fluidized bed reactor. Various techniques are used to characterize TiO2 nano-photocatalyst such as X-Ray Diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy,  Energy Disp...

In this work, an efficient photocatalyst based on gamma-cyclodextrin-modified titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiO2/γ-CD NPs) was synthesized and used for photocatalytic degradation of rhodamine B (RhB), methyl orange (MO) and methylene blue (MB). The results of FESEM, EDX, TEM, FT-IR, XRD and BET surface area measurement showed that the TiO2 NPs were effectively modifi...
