Abstract:The synthesis and characterization of sodium titanates (ST), and their evaluation in the photocatalytic reduction of nitric oxide (NO) are described herein. The materials were synthesized by a hydrothermal route using 5 M NaOH as the mineralizer agent and a TiO2 content of 0.06 mg/mL (expressed as the mass ratio of TiO2/mL of NaOH), at 170 °C for 48 hours, resulting in sodium tri- and hexa-titanates. A nanotubular morphology was observed for the ST, as proved by scanning electron microscopy (SEM); a subsequent… Show more
