Preparation of silver-titanium dioxide core-shell (Ag@TiO2) nanoparticles: Effect of Ti-Ag mole ratio

Core–shell titanium dioxide /carbon nanofibers decorated nickel nanoparticles as supports for electrocatalytic oxidation of ethanol

Abstract Recently alcohol fuel cells has been increased consideration because of their environmental friendliness, high energy conversion efficiency and low emissions. Many effort have been made to improve the electro-oxidation performance of alcohols such as methanol, ethanol and propanol. In this work, a new method for ethanol oxidation based on core–shell titanium dioxide / carbon nanofib...

Facile electrochemical characterization of core/shell nanoparticles. Ag core/Ag(2)O shell structures.

We report in this paper a facile approach for the formation and electrochemical characterization of silver-silver oxide core-shell nanoparticles (NPs). Thus, thermal treatment at temperatures between 200 and 360 degrees C of Ag NP, in the gas phase or in an organic solvent, has been used to achieve the formation Ag@Ag2O NP. The evidence of formation of such a core-shell structure was obtained b...

Preparation of Hollow Titanium Dioxide Shell Thin Films from Aqueous Solution of Ti-Lactate Complex for Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells

Preparation and Characterization of Cerium Doped Titanium Dioxide Nanoparticles by the Electrical Discharge Method

Titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiO2) are known as a widely used photocatalyst. In order to improve the performance of these nanoparticles, the recombination of the electron-cavity pair must be reduced and the absorption rate of the visible region should be expanded. One way to increase the performance of these nanoparticles is using cerium doped TiO2. In the present study, pure and doped titan...

Preparation and Photocatalytic Properties of Silver Doped Titanium Dioxide Nanoparticles and Using Artificial Neural Network For Modeling of Photocatalytic Activity

This paper presents a study on the preparation method for Ag-TiO2 nano particles. Photodeposition of silver on TiO2 nanoparticles was carried out by adding a desired volume of aqueous AgNO3. Ag-deposited TiO2 catalyst was characterised by XRD, TEM, SEM. The Ag-TiO2 catalyst was evaluated for their photocatalytic activity towards the degradation of Malachite green (MG) under UV irradiation. An a...
