Magnetically Separable Ag NWs/Fe3O4@mTiO2 Nanowires: Fabrication and Photocatalytic Activity
2019
This work has developed a facile strategy to create magnetically separable, core-shell structured composites consisting of a magnetic Ag nanowires (NWs)/Fe

2 composite was employed as a catalyst for removal of the organic contaminants through a colorimetric photocatalytic degradation assay using methylene blue (MB) as a model contaminant. Moreover, the photocatalysts can be easily separated and recycled with an external magnetic field and possess prominent recoverability.
