DOI: 10.1016/j.cej.2016.05.007
Abstract: Abstract Anatase–brookite heterojunction TiO2 (ABH) photocatalysts were purposefully tailored by introducing different glycine concentrations through hydrothermal treatment at 200 °C for 20 h. In the absence of glycine, pure anatase and brookite phases were selectively prepared via… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/app151810188
Abstract: Contemporary murals are highly susceptible to rapid color fading due to outdoor urban exposure. This study investigates the photodegradation mechanisms affecting synthetic organic pigments (SOPs) and commercial acrylic–vinyl paints under simulated visible light exposure. Artificial… read more here.
