Photocatalyzed degradation of flumequine by doped TiO2 and simulated solar light
Titanium dioxide was obtained in its pure form (TiO2) and in the presence of urea (u-TiO2) and thiourea (t-TiO2) using the sol-gel technique. The obtained powders were characterized by BET surface area analysis, Infrared Spectroscopy, Diffuse Reflectance Spectroscopy and the Rietveld refinement of X...
