In-Depth Information
• The incorporation of the nano-catalysts into photocatalytic paints, which
would theoretically enhance the photocatalytic effi ciency by drastically
increasing the specifi c catalyst surface. Special attention should be
attached to the evaluation of the potential health risks derived from the
usage of such reactive nano-materials.
• The development of more active catalysts that can be activated by
visible radiation.
•
The increase in the stability of paint components to minimize the forma-
tion of secondary emissions during photocatalysis.
