Superoxide and hydroxyl radicals react
with organics, microorganisms, and
pollutants adsorbed on the surface of
TiO, resulting in hydroxylation,
oxidation, and finally mineralization to
2'
carbon dioxide and water.
Photo-induced holes in the valence
band diffuse to the surface and likely
react with adsorbed water and hydroxyl
ions to form reactive hydroxyl radicals,
which are strong oxidizing agents.
Photo-induced electrons in the
conduction band typically reductively
react with adsorbed oxygen in air to
produce reactive superoxide radicals.
