Influence of calcination on photocatalytic properties of nonstoichiometric titanium dioxide nanotubes

Effect of heat treatment under vacuum on structure and visible-light photocatalytic activity of nano-TiO2

“…In recent years, the research on photocatalysis technology of TiO 2 has attracted increasing attention from scientic communities due to its appealing advantages such as the high catalytic oxidation activity, the fast photocatalysis degradation reaction, the high photocatalytic activity, and so on. 2,3 Thus, TiO 2 based photocatalysts have great potential for applications in a wide range of areas, for example, environmental management, 4 development of new energy, [5][6][7][8][9] air purication, 10,11 sewage treatment, 12 self-cleaning ceramics, 13,14 sterilization material, [15][16][17][18] photoelectric conversion, 19,20 etc. However, the application of TiO 2 based photocatalysts is still limited due to the following two aspects.…”

Controlling the growth of nanosized titaniaviapolymer gelation for photocatalytic applications

“…[1][2][3] In addition to its excellent physicochemical properties, chemical stability in a broad pH range and low cost, this oxide is environmentally benign. [2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11] TiO 2 has many high-tech applications such as photocatalysis, batteries, super capacitors, sensors and drug formulations. 5,[12][13][14][15][16][17][18] TiO 2 occurs in four commonly known crystal forms: anatase, rutile, brookite and bronze.…”
