چکیده

We report an unprecedented formation of mesoporous titania via a surfactant-assisted aggregating assembly of TiO(2) nanoparticles. These mesostructures possess a highly crystalline anatase phase, large and accessible pore surface area, and exhibit superior photocatalytic performance.

UV/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...

Synthesis of mesoporous TiO2-SiO2-Ag and investigation of its structural and photocatalytic properties under visible light and ultra-violate

In this project, mesoporous titanium oxide-silicon oxide doped by silver (TiO2-SiO2-Ag) was hydrothermally synthesized. Titanium isopropoxide, tetraethyl orthosilicate and silver nitrate were used as precursors for TiO2, SiO2 and Ag, respectively. Initially TiO2-SiO2 mesoporous nanocomposite was synthesized with weight ratios of silica to titania SiO2:TiO2:3:1 via hydrothermal method at 70˚C an...
