Necklace-like mesoporous MgO/TiO2 heterojunction structures with excellent capability for water treatment

Dalton Trans. 2014 Feb 14;43(6):2348-51. doi: 10.1039/c3dt52199k. Epub 2013 Dec 2.

Abstract

Necklace-like MgO/TiO2 heterojunction structures were synthesized by a simple and economical precursor calcination method for the first time. The obtained unique MgO/TiO2 heterojunction structures exhibit an excellent removal performance towards toxic As(v) ions combined with good photocatalytic properties towards organic dyes.
