| Abstract |
At first, naked TiO2 was prepared by sol-gel method. Silver nitrate and thiourea were respectively used as silver source and sulfur source added to form a TiO2 sol and Ag2S polymer blend system. Then, the properties of Ag2S-TiO2 was one-step synthesized and investigated by photocatalytic experiment and material characterization. According to the characterization results, Ag2S-TiO2 is anatase with a band gap of 3.14 eV, a specific surface area of 39.80 m2/g, and an average pore diameter of 3.56 nm. The results of photocatalytic experiments show that Ag2S-TiO2 can efficiently remove ethyl paraben within 2 h. Quenching experiments show that both •OH and photogenerated holes have a large effect on photocatalytic performance. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 14 February 2020.
All research outputs
#16,223,992
of 23,911,072 outputs
Outputs from Environmental Science and Pollution Research
#3,738
of 9,883 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#275,388
of 455,106 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Environmental Science and Pollution Research
#85
of 244 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,911,072 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 21st percentile – i.e., 21% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 9,883 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.7. This one is in the 48th percentile – i.e., 48% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 455,106 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 30th percentile – i.e., 30% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 244 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 48th percentile – i.e., 48% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
