Abstract
The photochemical reaction between C3H6 and NO2 in air over ZnO was investigated in order to elucidate the chemical influences of atmospheric particles on photochemical smog formation. A photocatalytic action of ZnO was demonstrated from the findings: HCN formation, a remarkable increase in C3H6 consumption and CO2 formation rates, and larger values of activation energies for formation of CO2 and CH3CHO than those obtained without ZnO.This publication has 11 references indexed in Scilit:
