Abstract:
The Present Work Explores The Applications Of Titanium Dioxide And Photocatalysis To Produce Self-Cleaning Cement. In The Present Study, Self-Cleaning Cement Was Prepared Using Titanium Dioxide And White Cement. To Enhance The Performance, Titanium Dioxide Was Also Doped With Ag, And Further Used For Preparation Of Self-Cleaning Cement. The Doped Titanium Dioxide Was Characterized Using XRD And TEM. The Surface Of Prepared Cement Samples Were Analyzed Using SEM. The Self-Cleaning Ability Of The Prepared Cement Samples Were Evaluated In A Photocatalytic Activity Test Under Sun-Light As Well As Artificial UV-Light. It Has Been Observed That Prepared Cement Samples Are Able To Clean Their Surfaces.
