Description
Summary:Zeolite was incorporated in titanium dioxide film prepared by the sol gel method and used to degrade gas-phase benzene. Seven different zeolite samples, the characteristics of which are tabulated, were used. All of the zeolites were observed to enhance the benzene degradation rate, but the photoactivity of the film varied greatly with zeolite. Best results were achieved using HSZ 320 and F-9. While humidity generally increased the photoactivity, the effect varied among the zeolite samples, with the enhancement greater for high-silica zeolites.
