Abstract

Adsorptive and kinetic properties on photocatalytic hydrogenation of acetophenone (AP) and 2, 2, 2-trifluoroacetophenone (TFAP) have been investigated upon UV irradiated P25 TiO2 in deaerated ethanol. Kinetic data of AP were analyzed by the Langmuir– Hinschelwood kinetic expression,− d Cs/dt= k max K irr Cs/(1+ AK irr Cs), where k max is the maximum rate and K irr is the apparent adsorption constant under the irradiation. The ...
