Abstract. The catalytic efficiency of iron (II, III) oxide to promote Fenton-like reaction was examined by employing Rhodamine B (RhB) as a model compound at neutral pH. Two types of iron (II, III) oxides were used as heterogeneous catalysts and characterized by XRD, Mössbauer spectroscopy, BET surface area, particle size and chemical analyses. The adsorption to the catalyst changed signif…
Abstract. Methylparaben is widely used as a bactericide and as an antimicrobial agent in the formulation of personal care products (PCPs) such as tooth pastes, deodorants, beauty creams, solar filters, and bath gels. Owing to a certain estrogenic activity, a possible relationship with breast cancer has been proved by many researchers. Photocatalytic degradation of methylparaben was carried …
