Nanosphere assembled mesoporous titanium dioxide with advanced photocatalystic activity using absorbent cotton as template
Source abstract
Abstract
Nanosphere assembled mesoporous TiO2 products with large specific surface area and high crystallinity were prepared by a combined hydrothermal and post-heating process, where absorbent cotton was used as a template. The as-synthesized samples were characterized using X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, N2 adsorption/desorption, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and UV–Vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy. Results indicate that the obtained products exhibit a unique 3D mesoporous structure and demonstrate a significantly improved photocatalytic performance, which can be attributed to concurrent effects of high surface area, the presence of accessible mesopores channels and high crystallinity.
