Effect of heat treatment on photocatalytic activity of titania incorporated with carbon black for degradation of methyl orange

Abstract: In a previous study, the photocatalytic activity of titania (TiO2) for the degradation of methyl orange was found to be significantly enhanced by the incorporation of carbon black (CB). This work aims to improve the catalyst activity further by changing the method of heat treatment and determining the optimal annealing temperature for the preparation of catalyst. The effect of annealing temperature on structure and activity of the prepared catalysts is also investigated. Experimental results reveal that the ph… Show more

“…and zeolites, [59][60][61][62] and suitable minerals [63][64][65] are the most attractive materials for synthesizing adsorbent-photocatalytic composites. Conventional carbonbased compounds such as activated carbon [66][67][68] and carbon black 69,70 have been deeply studied. More advanced structures such as carbon nanobers, 71,72 carbon nanotubes, [73][74][75] fullerenes, [76][77][78] and graphene, [79][80][81] and new morphologies such as nanohorns, 82 nanopetals 83 (Fig.…”

“…It is widely accepted that the degradation of pollutants in water proceeds by oxidation either reacting directly with generated holes or indirectly with OH free radicals [19,20]. Moreover, the photocatalytic activity of TiO 2 is often dependent on the nature and density of surface defect sites.…”
