Mesoporous MgTa2O6 thin films with enhanced photocatalytic activity: On the interplay between crystallinity and mesostructure
Ordered mesoporous, crystalline MgTa(2)O(6) thin films with a mesoscopic nanoarchitecture were synthesized by evaporation-induced self-assembly (EISA) in combination with a sol-gel procedure. Utilization of novel templates, namely the block copolymers KLE (poly(ethylene-co-butylene)-b-poly(ethylene oxide)) and PIB6000 (CH(3)C(CH(3))(2)(CH(2)C(CH(3))(2))(107)CH(2)C(CH(3))(2)C(6)H(4)O(CH(2)CH(2)O...
متن کاملElectrospinning Synthesis and Photocatalytic Activity of Mesoporous TiO2 Nanofibers
Titanium dioxide (TiO(2)) nanofibers in the anatase structure were successfully prepared via electrospinning technique followed by calcination process. The morphologies, crystal structure, surface area, and the photocatalytic activity of resulting TiO(2) nanofibers were characterized by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffracti...
متن کاملLow temperature crystallisation of mesoporous TiO2.
Conducting mesoporous TiO2 is rapidly gaining importance for green energy applications. To optimise performance, its porosity and crystallinity must be carefully fine-tuned. To this end, we have performed a detailed study on the temperature dependence of TiO2 crystallisation in mesoporous films. Crystal nucleation and growth of initially amorphous TiO2 derived by hydrolytic sol-gel chemistry is...
متن کاملThe effects of atmosphere and calcined temperature on photocatalytic activity of TiO2 nanofibers prepared by electrospinning
TiO2-based nanofibers were synthesized using a sol-gel method and electrospinning technique. The as-spun composite fibers were heat-treated at different temperatures (500°C, 550°C, 600°C, and 650°C) and atmospheres (ammonia and nitrogen) for 4 h. The fibers had diameters of 50 to 200 nm and mainly featured anatase and rutile phases. The anatase phase decreased and the rutile phase increased wit...
متن کاملUV/ozone-assisted low temperature preparation of mesoporous TiO2 with tunable phase composition and enhanced solar light photocatalytic activity
In this paper, we report a UV/ozone-assisted method for low temperature preparation of mesoporous TiO2 with controlled crystalline phase. The results showed that the crystallization of mesoporous TiO2 can occur at temperatures as low as 100 C under UV/ozone irradiation. Highly crystalline mesoporous anatase TiO2 was obtained after UV/ozone treatment at 200 C. The phase transformation from anata...
