Preparation and characterization of TiO2 incorporated Y-zeolite

Photodegradation of an azo dye using immobilized nanoparticles of TiO2 supported by natural porous mineral

“…1, pattern of TiO 2 -mordenite consists with the raw mordenite very well and there are no diffraction peaks corresponding to typical TiO 2 , including anatase, rutile and brookite, can be observed. And similar results have also been reported by other researchers [17,28]. This should be due to the less amount and small-size of TiO 2 loaded on mordenite, which also corresponds to the morphology analysis.…”

Photocatalytic properties of zeolite-based materials for the photoreduction of methyl orange

“…The arrangement of cages and channels in these crystalline zeolites allow for placement of molecules in welldefined and unique spatial arrangement [3], while they can be used as constrained systems for the preparation of semiconductors (TiO 2 ) with controlled particle size and shape. Zeolites are reported to provide specific photo physical properties such as the control of charge transfer and electron transfer processes [11][12][13][14]. Zeolite-Y with uniform pore size and enormous surface area serves as the support where molecules like heteropolyacid (HPA) can be stabilized by supporting them on the zeolite structure [15][16][17][18][19].…”

Enhancement of Photocatalytic Efficiency of TiO2 by Supporting on Clinoptilolite in the Decolorization of Azo Dye Direct Yellow 12 Aqueous Solutions

“…And similar results have also been reported by other researchers. 21,22 It implies that the frame structure of zeolite after TiO 2 loading has not been destroyed. The infrared analysis confirms that the TiO 2 particles combine with the active sites of natural zeolite, clinoptilolite, and Ti-O-Al and Ti-O-Si which make the load of TiO 2 ; the IR spectra were measured, shown in Fig.…”
