The st udy of pho to degrad ation kinetics of P VC-TiO۲ n ano-com posites and determination of their hydroph obicity under artific ial UV radiation

Poly(viny l chloride) is one of th e most widely used polymers in the world, because it exhibits a g ood price/performance balance that allows pen etration into many applications su ch as pipes, cable insulation, packaging foils, and med ical products [۱]. In ou tdoor appli cations all polymers de grade. The degrada tion rate d epends on the environ ment and on the type of polymer. The PVC –TiO۲ c omposite re presents a unique case of the photocatalytic d egradation o f solid wastes while most of photocatalytic remediation systems have dealt with aquatic o r air polluta nts [۲].
