Facile in-situ Solvothermal Method to synthesize double shell ZnIn2S4 nanosheets/TiO2 hollow nanosphere with enhanced photocatalytic activities

Construction of CoS/CeO2 heterostructure nanocages with enhanced photocatalytic performance under visible light

“…Nitrogen adsorption‐desorption isotherms were recorded to resolve the structural characteristics of CCNC‐0.1, CoS nanocage, and the results are further shown in Figure 5A,B. The adsorption curves of all the samples are compatible with the adsorption behavior of the type IV isotherm, followed by the H3 hysteresis loop, implying the successful manufacture of the mesoporous structure in the as‐synthetic sample 49,50 . Obviously, the prepared CCNC‐0.1 sample maintains the higher specific surface area and pore size (Seen in Table 1).…”

An Update on Mesoporous Silica Nanoparticle Applications in Nanomedicine

“…In this review, we only focus on mesoporous silica and its therapeutic applications. Since the discovery of MSNs, different synthesis methods (e.g., the Sol–Gel method [ 37 , 38 , 39 ], the hydrothermal method [ 40 , 41 , 42 , 43 ], and the green method [ 44 , 45 , 46 , 47 , 48 ]) have been developed to enhance their efficiency according to specific applications. Here, we briefly introduce the templating method that has been widely used to synthesize different types of MSNs, known as sol-gel synthesis.…”

“…Furthermore, the covalent attachment of different imaging agents and targeting ligands to MSNs modify their characteristics and thereby therapeutic applications of these nanocarriers [ 96 , 98 , 99 ]. For example, a magnetic core, such as iron oxide, can be incorporated into MSNs to enhance magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and modulate their therapeutic outcomes [ 14 , 40 ]. The functionalization of MSNs with hydrophobic groups is widely used for therapeutic purposes as some drugs with a hydrophobic nature hardly penetrate MSNs due to their hydrophilic surface [ 100 ].…”

Preparation of F-doped H2Ti3O7-{104} nanorods with oxygen vacancies using TiOF2 as precursor and its photocatalytic degradation activity

“…Due to the delocalization of electrons in the CB, the electrons transferred from TCH to F-H 2 Ti 3 O 7 CB and the electrons transferred from F-H 2 Ti 3 O 7 VB can easily migrate from F-H 2 Ti 3 O 7 CB to the surface trap, where they are trapped and stabilized. 64,65 Due to the CB potential, F-H 2 Ti 3 O 7 is more negative than that of O 2 /cO (À0.046 eV vs. NHE), 66 the adsorbed O 2 on the surface of the photocatalyst is more likely to capture the electrons and form cO 2 À . These reactive superoxide radicals (cO 2 À ) can highly oxidize the TCH and TCH + into H 2 O, CO 2 , and some small molecules.…”
