Cr2O3 and Cr2O3–SiO2-TiO2 coatings are deposited on P265GH steel using atmospheric plasma spraying. The influence of silicon oxide—titanium oxide addition the surface morphology coatings, phase composition tribological properties under non-lubricated sliding conditions investigated. SiO2-TiO2 led to formation a more uniform reduce roughness coatings. X-ray diffraction (XRD) studies indicated th...

A novel approach, namely photocatalytic esterification and addition reaction of unsaturated fatty acids using CuO/TiO2 catalyst has been investigated in kemiri sunan oil. The objectives this study are to reduce the free acid (FFA) content by CuO/TiO2, characterization operation condition reaction. was synthesized impregnation TiO2 P25 powder with copper nitrate solution as a precursor followed ...

PURPOSE In our previous study, Ag+-loaded TiO2 and Ag+-loaded SiO2 coatings for tracheal intubation were prepared to prevent ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP), but the antimicrobial targets and the underlying mechanisms of TiO2 and Ag-TiO2 (Ag+) are still unclear. We attempted to elucidate the antimicrobial activity and potential mechanisms against Staphylococcus aureus. METHODOLOGY The s...

Hydrophobic Y-zeolite (SiO2/Al2O3 = 810) and TiO2 composite photocatalysts were designed by using two different types of TiO2 precursors, i.e., titanium ammonium oxalate and ammonium hexafluorotitanate. The porous structure, surface property and state of TiO2 were investigated by various characterization techniques. By using an ammonium hexafluorotitanate as a precursor, hydrophobic modificatio...

TiO2-SiO2-Ag composites are fabricated by depositing TiO2 films on silica substrates embedded with Ag nanoparticles. Enhancement of light absorption of the nanostructural composites is observed. The light absorption enhancement of the synthesized structure in comparison to TiO2 originated from the near-field enhancement caused by the plasmonic effect of Ag nanoparticles, which can be demonstrat...

TiO2 photo catalyst was prepared in presence of nano SiO2 and Hydroxy Propyl Cellulose (HPC) by sol gel method with Titanium Tetra IsoproPoxide (TTIP) as titanium precursor. Additional effect of HPC in preparation of nano catalyst, and photo catalyst properties measured and characterized by FT-IR, FT-Raman and SEM. The catalyst size and structural properties of the film were determined by .-Ray...
