“…1d and e). A small fraction of rutile is also detected, which forms due to the accelerated anatase-rutile phase transformation at the interface between nanocrystals, 16 and is thus to some extent inevitable in these samples. The average anatase crystal size calculated from XRD is 11.22 nm, which matches TEM observations.…”

“…16 Briefly, a solution of sol-gel precursors and PVP is electrospun as continuous thin nanofibres. Subsequent pyrolysis and annealing in inert gas removes the polymer coating and completes the crystallisation of TiO2, resulting in a vacancy-rich oxide with high activity in photocatalytic hydrogen production 16 and CO2 reduction under UV irradiation. 17 Fig .…”

“…[25][26][27][28][29] Interestingly, with simple composites, ternary hybrid composites offer the key advantage of intimate interfaces, namely facilitation of charge/energy transfer, which causes an increased lifetime of charge carriers through spatial separation of photoexcited electron-hole pairs. 30 In the present work, Pt-TiO 2 NPs/decorated carbon nanotube (fMWCNTs, fSWCNTs) nanocomposite materials are synthesized using a new method by a sonochemical/hydrationdehydration process, and are deliberately investigated by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDXS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), UVvis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS), photoluminescence (PL), and Raman spectroscopy. The Pt-TiO 2 /fCNTs (fMWCNTs, fSWCNTs) composite materials were investigated by measuring the photocatalytic production of H 2 from biomass-containing aqueous solutions, namely from methanol either by Pt-TiO 2 / fCNTs nanocomposites, or by testing the in situ injection addition of Pt to the binary composite TiO 2 /fCNTs during the reaction of methanol dehydrogenation as a comparative study.…”

“…Lately the use of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) to increase the effectiveness of surface reactions has been more frequently observed 1 13 and by electrospinning 14,15 . Nevertheless, these techniques are not easy and require specialized equipment.…”
