Abstract

Different composites TiO<sub>2</sub>@SiO<sub>2</sub> were obtained by <italic>in situ</italic> synthesis of TiO<sub>2</sub> on Algerian diatomite. Our results show that there is an optimum amount of diatomite which leads to mixed TiO<sub>2</sub> phase with enhanced photocatalytic activity.
