Development of highly performing TiO2 complex thin films by novel combined physico-chemical process for enhanced photo-catalytic applications

Synthesis, structural, photocatalytic, wettability and optical properties of TiO2 films on polymethyl methacrylate substrates

“…TiO 2 is one of the most usable oxides in industrial applications and in various fields such as photovoltaic [1], photocatalytic degradation of organic wastes [2][3][4][5][6], self-cleaning [7], gas sensing [8], ultra-violet (UV) photodetecting [9], hydrogen generation [10,11], etc. The photocatalytic property of TiO 2 coatings is the most common and widely used in industry because of their high efficiency in degradation of organic pollutants upon UV illumination [12][13][14].…”

Growth inhibition of bacterial pathogens by photo-catalyst process of nano-alloys FeCuNi doped TiO2 under ultraviolet irradiation

“…The last two crystal structures are thermodynamically more stable [ 9 ] with the band gap energy (Eg) of ±3.0–3.2 eV. When compared to the rutile structure, the anatase TiO 2 phase structure has more excellent photo-catalytic properties including electron transfer rate that is 89 times greater, chemically and biologically inert, mechanical toughness, low cost and non-toxic [ 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 ]. The photocatalytic process requires photon energy.…”
