Versatile Titanates: Classification, Property, Preparation, and Sustainable Energy Catalysis

“…The hydrothermal method is a very popular and versatile method due to its various merits, including no calcination process, less energy consumption, high crystallinity, simple operation, and controllable size and morphology, which contribute to designing titanates and applying them to energy catalysis application. [ 27 ] The hydrothermal reaction process contains solution drifting through slurry, element spreading, crystallization, and crystal growth. Specially, the combination of solvent, temperature, and pressure makes the resulting products stabilize and lowers the existence of unwanted impurities.…”

“…The review about solar fuel production for organic semiconductor photocatalysts has also been introduced by Kosco et al [26] But these only refine to photocatalytic energy applications and are not relevant to titanates. With regard to titanates, Bi et al [27] emphasized their applications in environmental pollutant removal. Patial et al [28] summarized the strategies for improving the photocatalytic water splitting performance of strontium titanate (SrTiO 3 ).…”

Stable and Reversible Lithium Storage Properties of LiTiOx Nanotubes for Electrochemical Recovery from Aqueous Solutions

“…[10,11] Applications of this kind of structure range from catalytic applications to photovoltaics to secondary batteries by exploiting its many interesting features. [12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25] In particular, TiO 2 NTs grown by anodic oxidation on a conductive titanium foil have been extensively studied as electrodes for lithium ion batteries. [26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35] In this case, the metal substrate work as current collector and the highly ordered structure of the NTs ensures a one-dimensional electronic and ionic conductivity.…”

Urea-induced supramolecular self-assembly strategy to synthesize wrinkled porous carbon nitride nanosheets for highly-efficient visible-light photocatalytic degradation

“…With the rapid development of industrialization and urbanization in the past decades, the increased discharge of harmful and toxic organic pollutants has had a serious inuence on aquatic environments and human health. [1][2][3] Photocatalysis is an effective technique for the degradation of pollutants by using inexhaustible and clean solar energy. 4 Recently, graphitic carbon nitride (g-C 3 N 4 ), a non-metal semiconductor photocatalyst, has attracted attention for photocatalytic degradation of organic pollutants due to the merits of non-toxicity, superior visible-light responsiveness and photochemical stability.…”
