Title: Photocatalytic degradation of diethyl phthalate using TiO{sub 2} nanoparticles

Journal Article · · AIP Conference Proceedings
DOI:https://doi.org/10.1063/1.4872608· OSTI ID:22269467

TiO{sub 2} nanoparticles predominantly in rutile phase are synthesized by ultrasonication assisted sol-gel method. TiO{sub 2} powder is characterized using X-ray powder diffraction and UV-vis diffuse reflectance. TiO{sub 2} is used as catalyst in photocatalytic degradation of Diethyl Phthalate. TiO{sub 2} exhibits good photocatalytic activity for the degradation of diethyl phthalate.
