A Study of the Adsorption–Structural Parameters and Photoactivity of TiO2/Kaolinite Composite

Resumo

The TiO₂/kaolinite material—a filler for construction materials with the function of passive degradation of household organic pollutants—has been synthesized and its properties have been examined. Synthesis of the material has been performed under varied conditions: the amount of the reactive mixture and temperature of thermal treatment have been altered. Thereafter, the effect of the synthesis conditions on chemical composition, surface morphology, phase composition, adsorption parameters, and changes in the adsorption activity has been determined at irradiation by UV and visible light.
