NANOCRYSTALLINE PHOTOCATALYTIC COLLOID, A METHOD OF PRODUCING IT AND ITS USE

Summary

The present invention relates to a nanocrystalline photocatalyst active upon visible light irradiation, with a high degree of dispersion, stable in the form of a transparent colloidal solution in an aqueous environment, containing nanocrystals of titanium dioxide (TiO2) surface-modified via direct chemisorption of organic compounds. The present invention in turn relates to a method of producing the material as well as its use as a photosteriliser, photobacteriocide, photomycocide, and/or photoca
