Fabrication of Titanium dioxide nanotube photo-electrodes in different electrolyte mixtures and the impacts on their characteristics and photo-catalytic abilities under visible light
Abstract:TiO 2 nanotube arrays were fabricated using electrochemical anodization of titanium foils, where different types of electrolytes were tested to determine conceptual choice for nanotubes fabrication. These electrolytes are 1M (NH 4 ) 2 SO 4 containing 0.5% wt NH 4 F, 1M Na 2 SO 4 containing 0.5% wt NH 4 F, 1M NaF containing 0.5% wt (NH 4 ) 2 SO 4 and a mixture of water: ethylene glycol 1:9 containing 0.5% wt NH 4 F. The foils were marked as EG type (Ethylene Glycol), AS type (Ammonium sulfate), SS type (sodium … Show more
Incorporating nonionic Brij56 into cationic DDMIMCl (SAIL) micelles significantly enhances catalytic performance of SAIL toward reductive degradation of rhodamine B, a potential carcinogenic dye extensively used in multiple industrial applications.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
