Selective ligand thermolysis for modulating hierarchical pore-defect synergistic structures in MIL-125(Ti) and enhancing visible-light photocatalytic degradation performance

Key Points

• Enhanced visible-light photocatalytic degradation achieved using selective ligand thermolysis on MIL-125(Ti).
• Key improvement observed was a 50% increase in degradation efficiency during tests under visible light conditions.
• This analysis focused on modulating pore-defect structures within the MIL-125(Ti) framework using innovative thermolysis techniques.
• These findings suggest that targeted modifications may significantly improve the performance of photocatalysts in environmental cleanup processes.
