摘要
The aim of this work is to understand the effect of gamma irradiation on commercial TiO2 photocatalyst for water treatment applications. Previous studies concluded that gamma-irradiation is able to modify the electronic properties of TiO2 based photocatalysts and consequently their photocatalytic performance. However, there are some discrepancies in the literature where on one hand a significant enhancement of the material properties is reported and on the other hand only a weak effect is observed. In this study a surface effect on TiO2 is confirmed by using low and medium gamma irradiation doses. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
