Evaluation of the amount of superoxide anion radicals generated by ultrasonic cavitation in a TiO 2 suspension
Abstract In this study, the amount of radicals generated by high-intensity ultrasound irradiation of TiO 2 suspensions was evaluated through image processing to determine the degree of discoloration of methylene blue added to the suspension. It was found that 40 ml of distilled water, 0.2 g of H 2 O...
