| Abstract | Mesoporous 20 wt% Mn/TiO2 nanocomposites were synthesized adopting modified sol-gel method at different pH (pH = 2, 7 and 11) conditions and calcined at 400 °C. Based on the characteristics of the 20 wt% Mn/TiO2 nanocomposites synthesized at pH 11, same procedure was adopted for the synthesis of different wt% Mn/TiO2. The nanocomposite samples and their surface properties were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), mapping, inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), and fluorescence spectrometry. The nanocomposites existed in the anatase phase of TiO2 with no peak assigned to Mn on the diffractogram. The photocatalytic activities of the materials were evaluated by monitoring degradation of a model dye (methylene blue (MB)) in presence of visible light and ozone. The nanocomposite synthesized under neutral condition (pH = 7) exhibited the best photocatalytic activity resulting from its relatively smaller crystal size (5.98 nm) and larger pore volume (0.30 cm(3)/g). One percentage of weight Mn/TiO2 showed 100% decolouration of MB in the presence of O3 after 100 min. |

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.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
