Abstract
The best characteristics of properties (photocatalytic, adsorption, and antibacterial) have been revealed in the nanocomposites synthesized by the method 2. The correlation between the photoreaction rate constant (the k value) under UV irradiation in the presence of nanocomposites (kmax for NT/ZSM-5(12)) and the type of precursor, its pH, synthesis duration, NT:zeolite ratio, organic dye composition (methyl orange or Rhodamine G) has been established. The highest degree of extraction of P(V) ions from model aqueous systems has been observed in the presence of nanocomposites with the largest total surface area of all particles (Rmax = 99.48% for NT/MOR). The correlation between the sorption degree of P(V) ions and the modulus of zeolite is possible. Antibacterial activity in the dark towards Escherichia coli has been found for Y and Beta(25) zeolites and nanocomposites on their basis (methods 1 and 2) with the maximum diameter of bacterial growth inhibition (18 mm) obtained for NT/Beta(25) (method 2) synthesized only from TiOSO4×xH2SO4×yH2O precursor.
