Photocatalytic Activity of a Coating Synthesized in Electrolytic Plasma on the Surface of Ultralight Magnesium Alloy
摘要
Abstract
A possibility of using alloys based on magnesium modified by plasma-electrolyte treatment for photo-catalysis purposes is considered. A brief description of the nature of photoactivatable centers’ occurrence in oxides is given, and examples of similar studies in the area are provided. Results of the authors’ experiments on the determination of the photocatalytic ability of an ultralight alloy with composition Mg–8Li–1Al–0.6Ce–0.3Y after plasma-electrolyte treatment are presented. A conceptual model of induced photocatalysis in dielectric oxides is proposed.
