Photocatalytic degradation refers to an environmentally friendly technology that utilizes semiconductor materials, such as TiO2 and ZnO, to break down organic pollution, such as microplastics, into water, carbon dioxide, and inorganic acids. This process is triggered by the generation of highly reactive...
Low-density polyethylene (LDPE) is widely used in plastic products. Due to its nonpolar molecular structure and inert hydrocarbon chains, it is resistant to degradation, leading to serious environmental problems. As a photocatalyst, TiO2 generates electr
