The objective of this study was to evaluate, using methylene blue (MB), the effects of various light sources on the bleaching action of hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ) with two titanium dioxide (TiO 2 ) photocatalysts - an ultraviolet light-activated TiO 2 photocatalyst (UV- TiO 2 ) versus a visible light-activated TiO 2 photocatalyst (VL-TiO 2 ). Five experimental solutions (VL-TiO 2 +H 2 O 2 , UV-TiO 2 +H 2 O 2 , H 2 O 2 , \TLTiO 2 , UV-TiO 2 ) were prepared by mixing varying concentrations of H 2 O 2 andlor TiO 2 photocatalyst with MB solution. For H 2 O 2 -containing solutions (VL-TiO 2 ±H 2 O 2 , UV-TiO 2 +H 2 O 2 , and H 2 O 2 ), the concentration of H 2 O 2 was adjusted to 35%. For the four different light sources, low- and high-intensity halogen lamps and blue LED LCUs were used. All the experimental solutions were irradiated by each of the light sources for 7 minutes, and the absorbance at 660 nm was measured every 30 seconds to determine the concentration of MB as an indicator of the bleaching effect. On the interaction between the effects of light source and bleaching treatment, the high-intensity halogen with VL-TiO 2 +H 2 O 2 caused the most significant reduction in MB concentration. On the effect of light sources, the halogen lamps resulted in a greater bleaching effect than the blue LED LCUs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
