Ks. Wissiak et al., Heterogeneous photocatalytic decomposition of halosubstituted benzyl alcohols on semiconductor particles in aqueous media, CHEMOSPHERE, 41(9), 2000, pp. 1451-1455
The photodegradation of 2-, 3- and 4-halosubstituted benzyl alcohols (HBAs)
on semiconductive oxides (TiO2, ZnO) was studied. It was found out that th
e photodegradation rate increases from the fluoro to bromo derivates in the
case of 2- and 4-HBAs, whereas in the case of 3-HBAs the reverse trend was
observed. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
