A photocatalyst is utilized to perform enhanced degradation of pollutants to harmless by-products under irradiation of a light source. Of which, Titanium Dioxide is the widely known semiconductor photocatalyst. In this work, Sodium Titanate which has a semi-open nanotubular structure was synthesized...
