Photocatalytic Degradation of Methylene Blue Using Eu3+ and Sm3+ Co-Doped TiO2

Article Preview

Abstract:

Abstract: The 0.05%Eu3+ and 0.1%Sm3+ co-doped TiO2 composite nanoparticles have been prepared by sol-gel method and characterized by the techniques such as XRD and SEM/EDAX. The photocatalytic degradation of Methylene blue in aqueous solution was used as a probe reaction to evaluate their photocatalytic activity. The effects of process parameters like, solution pH and H2O2 concentration on the extent of photodegradation have been investigated.
