Formation and efficacy of TiO2/AC composites prepared under microwave irradiation in the photoinduced transformation of the 2-propanol VOC pollutant in air

- TiO2 particles on activated carbon (AC) were prepared by microwave selective heating.
- The TiO2 particle size decreased by a rise of the reaction temperature.
- The photocatalytic decomposition of iso-propanol (IPA) was accelerated nearly 6-fold using the microwave-synthesized TiO2/AC particulates.
