Photocatalytic degradation of methyl red dye
Silica nanoparticles (SiO2 NPs) are active in the photocatalytic degradation of methyl red dye (MR). Si2 NPs and Si2 NPs that have been doped with either silver (Ag NPs) and/or gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) were prepared. The particle size and morphology of the catalysts were assessed by transmission...
