Abstract

Magnesium doped TiO2 nanoparticles were synthesized by sol-gel method. The crystallite size of nanoparticles was obtained by X-Ray diffraction (XRD). The photocatalytic activity of magnesium doped TiO2 was tested by photocatalytic degradation of C.I. Acid Red 27 from mono azo textile dyes. Results show that magnesium doped TiO2 under visible light has high photocatalytical activity than undoped TiO2 nanoparticles.
