In this study, both nitrogen and chlorine were successfully doped into TiO2(N,Cl-codoped TiO2) via a sonochemical method using titanium(IV) butoxide and ammonium chloride as precursors. When N,Cl-codoped TiO2was tested on the decolorization of CI Reactive Black 5 (RB5), it was observed that the phot...
