Which Materials are Commonly Used in UV-Driven Catalysis?
Several materials are known for their effectiveness in UV-driven catalysis. These include:
Titanium Dioxide (TiO2): One of the most widely studied photocatalysts due to its stability, non-toxicity, and strong oxidizing power under UV light. Zinc Oxide (ZnO): Another popular photocatalyst with similar properties to TiO2. Graphitic Carbon Nitride (g-C3N4): Known for its visible-light activity but also effective under UV light. Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs): These materials can be tailored to have specific catalytic properties and are effective under UV irradiation.
