Summary

Researchers developed a novel photocatalytic system using alpha-Fe2O3 nanoflowers on TiO2 nanotube arrays that achieves efficient microplastic mineralization through combined visible-light-driven heterogeneous photocatalysis and photothermal Fenton-like reactions.

A synergic mode of heterogeneous photocatalysis and photothermal Fenton-like reaction for highly efficient microplastic degradation, utilizing α-Fe 2 O 3 nanoflower on TiO 2 with a hierarchical structure of inverse opal-like layer/nanotube arrays.
