| Abstract | This study attempts to elucidate the selectivity of photo-degradation of Rhodamine B (Rh–B) over zirconia-incorporated TiO2 (ZIT) by UV light, through a comparison of the photocatalytic activities of pure TiO2 (Degussa P25) and ZIT nanoparticles. The incorporated atomic ratio of Zr/Ti in ZIT is chosen at three levels: i.e. Zr/Ti = 68.01% (maximum, denoted as ZIT-1), Zr/Ti = 15.94% (medium, denoted as ZIT-3), and Zr/Ti = 1.88% (minimum, denoted as ZIT-4). The selective photo-degradation of Rh–B over ZIT occurs in two routes. They are N-de-ethylation and de-carboxylation. The photo-degradation N-de-ethylation of Rh–B is generally observed in an anatase-structured titania domain. However, the photo-catalytic de-carboxylation of Rh–B has not been reported for the titania-based photocatalysts. The spectra deconvolution data of solid state FT-IR suggest that the ZrO2–TiO2 matrix is responsible for the photo-catalytic de-carboxylation of Rh–B. The typical photocatalytic rate constants (kcat) of Rh–B over P25 (0.389 min−1), ZIT-1 (0.945 min−1), ZIT-3 (1.755 min−1), and ZIT-4 (1.197 min−1) are in the ratio 0.22 : 0.51 : 1.00 : 0.68. The kcat of ZIT is 2.78 to 4.89 times that of P25. The highest catalytic efficiency is not achieved by the sample having the highest zirconia doping. Based on the experimental data, the optimal incorporation amount of ZrO2 in ZIT for photo-degradation of Rh–B is Zr/Ti = 15.94%. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
