Synthesis and photocatalytic properties of Palladium-loaded three dimensional flower-like anatase TiO2 with dominant {0 0 1} facets

Shape Evolution of Hierarchical W₁₈O₄₉ Nanostructures: A Systematic Investigation of the Growth Mechanism, Properties and Morphology-Dependent Photocatalytic Activities

“…The data clearly demonstrate that the prepared flower-like hierarchical structure is a good catalyst to remove the MO dye under ultraviolet/visible light irradiation. The good efficiency of the W18O49 (6 h) catalyst is attributed to the unique hierarchical structures, which can provide radial microchannels for reactant diffusion and thus reduce electron loss [39,40]. Consequently, it exhibits excellent photocatalytic activity.…”

Synthesis and photocatalytic properties of three dimensional laminated structure anatase TiO2/nano-Fe0 with exposed (001) facets

“…3f indicated that the top and bottom facets of the TiO 2 nanosheets were the (001) facets. 31 Fig. 4 presents the SEM (a and b) and TEM (c and d) images of the 3D-TiO 2 /nano-Fe 0 .…”

“…25 Therefore, researchers have used different titanium sources and improved synthesis methods to realize the self-assembly of TiO 2 single crystal sheets with (001) facets exposed, and some TiO 2 catalysts with multi-level structure such as spherical and ower structure formed by the self-assembly of TiO 2 single crystal sheets with (001) facets have been successively synthesized. [31][32][33] The self-assembly structure of the single crystal sheets can effectively improve the transmission efficiency of photogenerated electrons and promote the separation of photogenerated electrons and holes, thus greatly improving the photocatalytic activity and photoelectric effect. 34,35 Therefore, the research on the design and preparation of TiO 2 materials with (001) facets exposed sheets structure has great signicance and broad application prospects.…”

Interactions of titania based nanoparticles with silica and green-tea: Photo-degradation and -luminescence

“…As a result, a range of applications that rely on TiO 2 have been developed including dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) [2,3], effective photocatalytic activity [4][5][6][7] by the photodegradation of organic dyes [8,9], water purification [10], biological applications [11,12], antimicrobial activities [13,14] and cosmetics [15,16]. Photodegradation of organic dyes is an application in which fast separation and spatial control of exciton pair is highly beneficial but for cosmetic application this behavior is undesirable.…”
