Özet
In the present research, it is reported that ball milling technique can be applied to enhance the photocatalytic properties of MnO and ZrO2 metal oxide powders (MZOx) furthermore the fabricated photocatalyst can be used for the degradation of tetracycline (TTC). XRD analyses revealed that increasing the milling time resulted in the formation of a pure metallic Mn crystal phase, which boosted the antibiotic degradation rate. It was confirmed by SEM technique that the morphological structures of the particles were generally small and uniform. The band gap energy was calculated as 3.70 eV for the hybrid metal oxide. Additionally, the adsorptive and photoluminescence features were illuminated via DRS and PL analyses. The effect of milling time had a major impact on the photodegradation rate of TTC, and the 8 h milling sample (MZOx-8h) exhibited the highest catalytic degradation activity (79.4 %). Low photocatalytic …
