Abstract

This study tested the effect of 50%:50% concentration nano-Talc/TiO2 on optical and photocatalytic properties thin layer activity. The goal is to understand how 50%:50% concentration affects absorption, reflection and transmission as as well as photocatalytic activity of thin layer. This research is experimental, starting with grinding Talc and TiO2, followed by dilution layer synthesis using the spin coat technique. Characterization includes cross-section morphology analysis using SEM, absorption, reflection, transmission and energy measurements slit with a UV-Vis DR spectroscope, as well as photocatalytic activity test. The research results show that the coating process managed to increase absorption by (92-98)% and energy band gap of 2.93 eV while reflection and transmission are reduced by (0.5-4)%, as well as the lowest rate of photocatalytic activity degradation rate of 0%, causing low ROS under light sunlight protective layer.

Abstract

The high water absorption of concrete causes the concrete to easily experience cracking and damage. One way to increase the durability of concrete is by adding microbes which can fill the micro cavities in the concrete with the resulting Calcium Carbonate (CaCO3) deposits. However, the weakness of using microorganisms is that they are unable to withstand high hydration heat. Therefore, by varying the temperature in this research, it is possible to determine the effect of the metabolism of the bacteria produced. This research was carried out to avoid damage by creating a hydrophobic and self-healing layer which helps increase the durability and strength of the concrete. The concrete sample made resembles a cube measuring 5 cm x 5 cm x 5 cm. The manufacturing materials are Portland cement, Otawa sand, distilled water and a mixture of E. coli bacteria. Heating was carried out using an oven at temperatures of 30, 60, 90, and 120 oC. Characterization testing was carried out using a Cpmreson machine, XRD and contact angle testing.
