Three-dimensional (3D) TiO2 with an acanthosphere-like morphology composed of nanothorns has been used as a suitable support to fabricate a visible-light-induced 3D AgI@TiO2 nanophotocatalyst. The structural characterization revealed that the size of the obtained AgI@TiO2 nanocomposite was close to that of pristine TiO2 particles, where AgI nanoparticles were evenly dispersed on the surfaces of...

a useful nanophotocatalyst (la,s-tio2) was prepared by a sol-gel method and characterized by uv–vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (drs), x-ray diffraction (xrd), photoluminescence emission spectroscopy (pl) and scanning electron microscopy (fesem). the results showed that the la,s-tio2, which calcined at 550 °c, contained only anatase phaseand its crystal size was 23 nm. in addition, the fes...

photocatalytic degradation of toxic organic compound in water, soil and air by semiconductor catalysts such as tio2 and zno have received much attention over the last two decades. however, the low quantum yield, easy agglomeration and difficult post-separation of these inorganic catalysts limit their application for large-scale applications. metal-organic frameworks (mofs) are the latest class ...

Sulfur doped titanium dioxide anatase nano-photocatalyst with different copper loadings (5, 10, 15, and 20 w/w %) was synthesized by hydrothermal method. The fabricated nanocatalysts were found to have high surface area, high aspect ratio, good surface morphology and high metals dispersion. The synthesized nanocatalysts were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), Scanning electron mic...
