Synthesis and Characterization of TTIP-Al Films and Fe3+/TTIP-Al Films to be Used in Photocatalytic Oxidation under Visible Light

Currently, pressed-wood industries reuse the chemical solution in wood conservation step by using a chlorine solution. However, this procedure is potentially harmful to workers due enormous amount of use. This research will offer more environmental and human health-friendly solutions process. In research, synthesis characterization TTIP-Al films Fe3+/TTIP-Al used photocatalytic oxidation under visible light was studied. The synthesized were study COD color removal To prepare films, aluminum sheets cleaned anodized increase films' pore size roughness for improving catalyst stabilization on substrates. Titanium isopropoxide (TTIP) TiO2-Fe3+ sol-gel dip-coating method. A total 6 different dosages synthesized. morphology analyzed SEM. Results revealed that anodization enhanced film surfaces. analysis XRD indicated crystal Anatase TTIP at 25.5° 2 Theta observed, which higher dosage resulted peak intensity. from UV-VIS suggested absorbed wavelengths shifted (410 nm) compared those (380 nm). FT-IR Spectra showed group hydroxyl radicals Fe3+/TiO2 surface. functional could affect efficiency oxidation. Color rubberwood pressed these annular reactor be studied next phase work.
