Rapid removal and subsequent low-temperature mineralization of gaseous acetaldehyde by the dual thermocatalysis of gold nanoparticle-loaded titanium(IV) oxide

Atomic Level Interface Control of SnO2-TiO2 Nanohybrids for the Photocatalytic Activity Enhancement

“…we have found that the adsorption of acetaldehyde on rutile TiO2 is suppressed in the presence of adsorbed water [45]. Consequently, in the present SnO2-NR#TiO2 photocatalytic reaction system, the highly selective and efficient oxidation of ethanol to acetaldehyde proceed.…”

“…The groups of Majima and Choi have recently shown that the reactive oxygen species photogenerated on rutile TiO 2 are the surface bound OH radicals (or surface trapped holes, •OH s ) limiting the oxidation mainly to the surface, whereas the oxidation on anatase TiO 2 can occur at the place far away from the surface in the former system because of the diffusion of OH radicals from the surface (or free OH radicals) [44]. Further, we have found that the adsorption of acetaldehyde on rutile TiO 2 is suppressed in the presence of adsorbed water [45]. Consequently, in the present SnO 2 -NR#TiO 2 photocatalytic reaction system, the highly selective and efficient oxidation of ethanol to acetaldehyde proceed.…”

Recent Advances in the Catalytic Oxidation of Volatile Organic Compounds: A Review Based on Pollutant Sorts and Sources

“…Tada and co-workers 707 proposed a reaction mechanism for the total oxidation of acetaldehyde over Au/TiO2 materials (Fig. 36).…”

ABC triblock copolymer-stabilized gold nanoparticles for catalytic reduction of 4-nitrophenol

“…This agglomeration will cause AuNPs to lose their original unique properties [8]. Thus, the preparation of highly stable and well-dispersed AuNPs has been one of the key nanometal research topics [9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16].…”
