In this work, we focused on improvement of rutile-type TiO2 degradation efficiency by cobalt doping and decorating on carbon nanotubes walls (CNTs) (Co-TiO2/CNTs). We also synthesized pure TiO2, Co-TiO2 and TiO2/CNTs samples for control experiments. The textural and morphology features of the samples were characterized by a range of analyses including: XRD, FESEM/EDX. FTIR, TEM, UV-Vis DRS and ...

Introduction: Rapid population growth and industrialization have increased chemical pollutants. Some studies show that employee exposure to formaldehyde in industrial places, hospitals, and laboratory settings is more than the allowed limits. Therefore, it is necessary to implement a proper control system to reduce this exposure. This study aimed to synthesize Ag3PO4/TiO2 nanocomposite, determi...

Visible light active graphitic carbon nitride/reduced graphene oxide/silver oxide nanocomposites with a p-n heterojunction structure were synthesized by chemical deposition methods. Prepared samples were characterized by different physico-chemical technics such as XRD, FTIR, SEM, TEM and DRS. Photocatalytic activity investigated by analyzing the Acid blue 92 (AB92) concentration during the time...

in this work, zno/sio2 nanoparticles were prepared using sol-gel method, and platinum particles were loaded on zno/sio2 nanoparticles by photoreductive method. samples were characterized by x-ray diffraction (xrd), scanning electron microscopy (sem) and fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ft-ir). the xrd patterns showed that the zinc oxide samples have a wurtzite structure (hexagonal phase...

In this study, Nitrogen doped TiO2 photocatalysts were prepared by the sol gel method and physicochemical properties were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), photoluminescence, and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (DRS) techniques. The XRD data indicated that the nanoparticles had the same crystals structures as the pure TiO2</su...
