One-Step Formation of WO3-Loaded TiO2 Nanotubes Composite Film for High Photocatalytic Performance

High aspect ratio of WO3-loaded TiO2 nanotube arrays have been successfully synthesized using the electrochemical anodization method in an ethylene glycol electrolyte containing 0.5 wt% ammonium fluoride in a range of applied voltage of 10–40 V for 30 min. The novelty of this research works in the one-step formation of WO3-loaded TiO2 nanotube arrays composite film by using tungsten as the cath...

Photocatalytic degradation of an organophosphorus compound by porous Au- and WO3- modified TiO2

Microwave-Assisted Synthesis of Carbon-Based (N, Fe)-Codoped TiO2 for the Photocatalytic Degradation of Formaldehyde

A microwave-assisted sol-gel method was used to synthesize (N, Fe)-codoped activated carbon (AC)/TiO2 photocatalyst for enhanced optical absorption in the visible light region. The prepared samples were characterized via X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, Brunauer-Emmett-Teller analysis, ultraviolet-visible...

Enhanced photoelectrochemical and photocatalytic activity of WO3-surface modified TiO2 thin film

Development of nanostructured photocatalysts for harnessing solar energy in energy-efficient and environmentally benign way remains an important area of research. Pure and WO3-surface modified thin films of TiO2 were prepared by magnetron sputtering on indium tin oxide glass, and photoelectrochemical and photocatalytic activities of these films were studied. TiO2 particles were <50 nm, while de...

Structure and Photocatalytic Properties of Mn-Doped TiO2 Loaded on Wood-Based Activated Carbon Fiber Composites

Mn-doped TiO₂ loaded on wood-based activated carbon fiber (Mn/TiO₂-WACF) was prepared by sol-gel and impregnation method using MnSO₄·H₂O as manganese source. The structure of Mn/TiO₂-WACF was characterized by SEM, XRD, FTIR, N₂ adsorption and UV-Vis, and its photocatalytic activity for methylene blue degradation was investigated. Results show that Mn-doped TiO₂ were loaded on the surface of woo...
