Design of TiO2-SiC photocatalyst using TiC-SiC nano-particles for degradation of 2-propanol diluted in water

β-SiC alveolar foams as a structured photocatalytic support for the gas phase photocatalytic degradation of methylethylketone

“…Recently, SiC foams composed of ␣-SiC, ␤-SiC and Si were used as TiO 2 support for degrading 4-aminobenzenesulfonic acid as model in water [35,36]. Powder SiC nanomaterials with different morphologies have also been used directly as UV or visible light photocatalysts [37][38][39][40] as well as within binary or ternary coupled systems with TiO 2 [41][42][43] or TiO 2 -WO 3 [44].…”

Preparation and characterization of the electrospun PCS/TiO2 fiber mat by electron beam irradiation

“…It was well known that TiO 2 has three natural phases: anatase, rutile, and brookite. Anatase is tetragonal with two formula units per unit cell and six Raman active modes (A1 g + 2B1 g + 3E g ), whereas rutile has two units and four Raman active modes (A1 g + B1 g + B2 g + E g ) [23,24]. The spectrum shows a low frequency mode at 145 cm À1 corresponding to the anatase E g mode.…”

Morphologic Control of Pt Supported Titanate Nanotubes and Their Photocatalytic Property

“…Under UVlight irradiation, 2-propanol is degraded to form acetone, and acetone as immediate is further oxidized into carbon dioxide and water [26][27][28]. Figure 5 shows changes in the concentration rates of 2-propanol and acetone with time for 10 20 (Figs.…”
