Effect of transition metal oxide doping (Cr, Co, V) in the photocatalytic activity of TiO2 for congo red degradation under visible light

Comparative study of Cr, Co or V-doped TiO2 was carried out. The photocatalysts were synthesized via sol-gel method. The results indicated that the dopants of Cr, Co, and V induced anatase to rutile phase transition of TiO2 at different dopant amounts of 1, 4, 2 mol%, respectively. Besides that, the...
