SYNTHESIS OF EOSIN Y-SENSITIZED Ag-TiO2 NANO-HYBRID FOR OPTIMIZED PHOTOCATALYTIC DEGRADATION OF AQUEOUS CAFFEINE
ABSTRACT The visible light spectral response of titania nanoparticles synthesized by hybrid treatment of TiO2 with silver dopant and Eosin Y-sensitizer was evaluated using caffeine, an emerging pollutant. The photocatalyst was characterized using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), x-ray diffraction...
