Layered double hydroxides (ZnAl-NO3-LDH) to mixed metal oxides: A promising pathway for sustainable NOx abatement by Humaira Asghar, Valter Maurino, Muhammad Ahsan Iqbal

“…The resulting ZnO-based LDOs were characterized via X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), scanning electron microscopy (SEM-EDS), and diffuse reflectance spectroscopy. The photocatalysts demonstrated a conversion efficiency of 27–29 % for NO photocatalytic conversion, with a notable reduction in NO₂ release (3–4 %) and a high selectivity of up to 91 % under light intensities of 20 and 40 W/m². …”
