Abstract

Finding a manner to effectively filter water to the purest standards is an ongoing battle for various sectors of science. We present a set of experiments that will report the preparation of the photocatalytic component of our composite particle via sol-gel coatings with titanium n-butoxide with subsequent heat treatment at 500°C for three hours in Argon. Our ultimate goal is to create a particle with regenerative capabilities along with a surface enhanced Raman scattering effect. Characterization techniques were performed using SEM-EDS, and XRD.
