The effect of supports, including TiO(2) and active carbon (AC), on the molecular structure and photocatalytic activity of chromium oxide for complete decomposition of EDTA has been examined with respect to the content of Cr on the catalyst surface. The photocatalytic activity of the Cr-TiO(2)/AC composites was evaluated in the decomposition of EDTA solution under UV irradiation. The results indicate that Cr-TiO(2)/AC has a higher efficiency in decomposition of EDTA than TiO(2), TiO(2)/AC or active carbon. This was attributed to the different functions of active carbon and chromate species. (1) Nanosize TiO(2) particles on composites were not reunited, possible because active carbon retards transformation of anatase into rutile and decreases the crystallite size. (2) Production of high concentrations of organic compound near Cr-TiO(2). (3) Carbon in active carbon causes some of the TiO(2) to reduce to Ti(3+) ions, which prevents electron-hole pair recombination. (4) Formation of polychromate species, with a stronger redox capability, on the surface of TiO(2)/AC. It was found that the addition of Cr to TiO(2) sol could suppress the grain growth of TiO(2) crystals and increase the hydroxyl content on the surface of TiO(2)/AC. The photocatalytic efficiency and activity of the composites remained good, even after three cycles.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">5</style></issue><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1.302</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gambhire, A.

An X-ray diffraction study found that the synthesized ZnO consists mainly of a hexagonal wurtzite structure along with a small amount of AuZn3 phase. Scanning electron images showed that the ZnO wires extend to several microns in length. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy studies confirmed the oxidation states of Au and Zn. An asymmetric O ls peak indicates the presence of oxygen in an oxide layer and O H groups on the films surfaces. Photoluminescence (PL) spectra showed different visible peaks for pre-annealed films, while for annealed films an UV peak appeared. In addition, the PL analysis showed that the overall intensity of photoluminescence decreased significantly after the films were annealed. Raman spectroscopy results also indicated that the crystalline quality of the films improved with annealing. This could be attributed to a decrease in oxygen vacancies and/or absorption of O-H groups on the surface of ZnO film. The highly hydrophilic surface with a water contact angle of similar to 155 degrees was obtained after annealing in air. (c) 2012 Elsevier Ltd and Techna Group S.r.l.
