Occurrence and prevention of photodissolution at the phase junction of magnetite and titanium dioxide
TL;DR: In this article, a stable magnetic photocatalyst was prepared by coating a magnetic core with a layer of photoactive titanium dioxide, which inhibited the direct electrical contact and hence prevented the photodissolution of the iron oxide phase.

Photodegradation mechanism for bisphenol A at the TiO2/H2O interfaces.
TL;DR: The two methyl groups in BPA were initially attacked with .OH and/or .OOH radicals having strong oxidizing power, followed by the cleavage of the two phenyl moieties, and the photomineralization to CO2 gas occurred via oxidative processes involving carboxylic acids and aldehydes.
