Metal Titanate (ATiO<sub>3</sub>, A: Ni, Co, Mg, Zn) Nanorods for Toluene Photooxidation under LED Illumination

The increasing air pollution taking place in virtue of human activity has a novel impact in our health. Heterogeneous photocatalysis is a promising way of degrading volatile organic compounds (VOCs) that makes the quest of new and improved photocatalysts of great importance. Herein, perovskite-relat...
