DUBLIN, May 16, 2022--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "The Global Market for Photocatalytic Materials and Coatings 2022-2032" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
The development of photocatalytic processes, materials, and chemicals offers opportunities to solve environmental issues such as clean air, pollutant degradation and provide a clean and sustainable environment via environmental remediation, CO2 photoreduction to fuels, water splitting, H2 production, interior bacterial and viral disinfection and suitable organic syntheses. Photocatalytic materials and chemicals offer environmentally-friendly disinfectant methods that are safe and effective for home use.
Of the many semiconductor heterogeneous photocatalysts, titanium dioxide (TiO2) is the most widely used due to its photostability, intrinsic electronic and surface properties, non-toxicity, cost-effectiveness, and environmental friendliness. However TiO2 photocatalysis suffers from several drawbacks, leading to the development of other materials such as nanoscale zinc oxide, carbon nitride g-C3N4, metal-organic framework (MOF) compounds, graphene-based photocatalysts, BiOCl, black phosphorus. ZnFe2O4, all of which are covered in this report.
Applications of photocatalytic materials and coatings include:
Self-sterilising, long-lasting clear coatings that kill viruses and bacteria for application in the home, corporate offices, restaurants and bars, healthcare facilities, industrial workplaces, hospitality and retail stores
Degradation of pollutants and maintaining air quality
Processes for treating industrial emissions
Roof coatings to reduce pollution through the degradation of sulfur and nitrogen oxides
Coatings for the elimination of VOCs and odours in public spaces
Applications make use of the self-cleaning, anti-fogging, antimicrobial or water cleaving properties. Antimicrobial use of photocatalysis involves three components: exposure to light, a photosensitizer, and molecular oxygen. These three components combine to produce reactive oxygen species that effectively kill a wide variety of microorganisms. Their use is growing in household applications to provide long-term disinfection.
In indoor environments, most surfaces, e.g. ceramic tiles, windows glass or paper, are gradually covered with organic matter such as oils, dirt, and smoke residue and become fouled. Use of photocatalytic coatings that are activated under visible light irradiation can address these issues. Companies are now actively seeking solutions that kill bacteria using light sources commonly present in homes (near UV and visible light) including Photocatalytic processes that kill bacteria using light sources commonly present in homes (near UV and visible light); Photocatalytic processes that produce powerful sanitizers (e.g. ClO2); and Combinations of photocatalytic processes with other chemicals that increase antimicrobial activity, particularly substances commonly used in cleaning products like chelants and surfactants.

Elon Musk stole the spotlight this morning, and his reported comments are hitting the stock prices of many electric vehicle (EV) makers. Nio (NYSE: NIO) is one that shares the Chinese market with Musk's Tesla, and its American depositary shares are being impacted. As of 11:06 a.m. ET, Nio shares were down 4.9% on the final trading day of the week.
(Reuters) -Dave Clark, the executive who made Amazon.com Inc into a worldwide delivery behemoth, is stepping down as chief executive of the online retailer's consumer business to pursue other opportunities, the company said on Friday. Amazon CEO Andy Jassy said he expects to name a replacement in the next few weeks and that the company has work ahead "to get to where we ultimately want to be" in the division Clark ran. The departure further solidifies a changing of the guard at Amazon, which for years had veteran ranks under founder Jeff Bezos.
Yahoo Finance Live checks out several stocks tied to leading industry stories, including American Airlines' decision to raise guidance amid the current travel boom and Boeing facing a two-year delay for its 737 jetliner re-designs.
Tesla CEO Elon Musk has a "super bad feeling" about the economy and needs to cut about 10% of salaried staff at the electric carmaker, he said in emails seen by Reuters. The dire outlook came two days after the billionaire told staff to return to the workplace or leave and adds to a growing chorus of warnings from business leaders about the risks of recession. Tesla shares fell 9% in U.S. trade on Friday after the Reuters report.
Tesla stock fell on Friday after CEO Elon Musk reportedly said the electric-auto maker would need to cut around 10% of its workforce.
Supply-chain snags led Boeing to recently pause 737 MAX production for about 10 days, people familiar with the matter said, complicating the plane maker’s ability to satisfy airlines’ demand for new aircraft. Boeing’s problems with delivering new narrow-body jets have frustrated customers such as Ryanair Holdings PLC as carriers seek to capitalize on surging air travel demand, and hindered the plane maker’s efforts to generate cash to pay down debt. Boeing is expected to burn through around $3.6 billion in cash during the first half of 2022, according to analysts’ estimates, though the company forecasts it can have positive cash flow for the year.

Boeing did not immediately respond to a Reuters' request for a comment. Last month, Boeing Chief Financial Officer Brian West said the 737 MAX production and deliveries were hit by the shortage of a particular wiring connector. Resuming deliveries of 787 Dreamliners and clearing inventories of its 737 Max are vital to Boeing's ability to emerge from the overlapping pandemic and jet-safety crises, a task complicated by supply-chain bottlenecks and the war in Ukraine.

Regarding “rules” for budgeting in retirement, I set aside $100,000 in what I call my “Stuff Happens” account. In my column, I invited readers—retired or about to be—to share with me any rules, recommendations or strategies they have developed or embraced to fine-tune their own spending and saving habits. Interestingly, almost every reader asked me to warn people approaching retirement: Your spending in retirement likely will equal, or exceed, what you’re spending while working.

In May, McDonald's Corp sold the restaurants to Govor, one of its licensees in Russia, who will rebrand them under a new name, ending more than three decades of the "Golden Arches" in the country. "We have a challenging and ambitious plan - to reopen all of the chain's restaurants in two months," Govor, who initially owned 25 McDonald's restaurants in Siberia as a franchisee, said in the interview with the Forbes Russia magazine. McDonald's temporarily closed its restaurants in Russia in March after Russia sent troops to Ukraine.
Dave Clark, the leader of Amazon.com Inc.'s (Nasdaq: AMZN) vast logistics and operations network is leaving the company after 23 years. Clark, who has recently relocated to Dallas with his family, said "for some time, I have discussed my intent to transition out of Amazon with my family and others close to me, but I wanted to ensure the teams were setup for success." In an email to employees, Amazon CEO Andy Jassy said Clark's resignation takes effect July 1, the first day of Amazon's third fiscal quarter.
