Role of heterojunction ZrTiO4/ZrTi2O6/TiO2 photocatalyst towards the degradation of paraquat dichloride and optimization study by Box–Behnken design

This study revealed that the existence of heterojunction of ZrTiO4/ZrTi2O6/TiO2 in the photocatalyst system has significantly enhanced the photodegradation of paraquat dichloride with respect to the increment of it thermal stability as shown in the XRD and XPS analyses. Several parameters such as Zr...
