abstract |
A transparent photocatalytic coating for in-situ generation of free radicals combating microbes, odors and organic compounds in visible light is disclosed, featuring a catalytic material comprising a dopant and having particle size distribution suitable for exciton-confinment to accumulatively shift the photocatalytic process into visible light range. Furthermore, the present invention features a method of producing the photocatalytic material described herein. Furthermore, the present invention discloses a method of application of the photocatalytic coating to a surface of a locus. Finally, the present invention features using the photocatalytic coating for removing contaminants and microorganisms at the locus. |
