Facile fabrication of ordered mesoporous Bi/Ti-MCM-41 nanocomposites for visible light-driven photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue and CO oxidation

Optimizing the performance of Auy/Nix/TiO2NTs photoanodes for photoelectrochemical water splitting

“…9c and d . A Tauc plot was constructed by plotting ( αhν ) 1/2 versus hν and the band gap energy ( E g ) values were obtained by extrapolating linear region of the curves to meet x -axis 59 and cited in Table 1 . The E g value of TiO 2 NTs was found to be 3.05 eV in accordance with the reported data of titania nanotubes.…”

A minireview on Applications of the metal-organic framework and carbon dots in dye photodegradation to protect the aquatic environment from organic pollutants

“…By seeking to find new porous materials that differ in their composition from zeolite compounds and their derivatives, it was found that Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are among the most important porous group members' materials [25,37,38]. MOFs are of unparalleled interest due to their large surface area compared to functionalized mesoporous materials [34,[39][40][41][42][43][44][45][46][47][48][49], polymer membrane [42,50] and ease of surface grafting with various functional chemical groups, and large pore size. MOFs are aromatic or aliphatic moieties attached to carboxyl, amine, or imidazole groups with some transitional elements.…”

Dyes Depollution of Water Using Porous TiO2-Based Photocatalysts

“…The Ag particles formed on the TiO2 surface were assumed to increase the affinity of the surface to oxygen, which is supposed to be the major role in enhancing the photocatalytic degradation of rhodamine B under UV light irradiation. The doping by metal such as bismuth has also been considered for mesoporous TiO2/MCM-41 SiO2 nanocomposites to enhance photocatalytic activity under visible light for methylene blue removal from water solution (Mohamed et al 2018). Synergetic effects of interfaces between Bi2O3 and TiO2 were assumed to enhance the catalytic performance of the composite Bi/Ti-MCM-41.…”
