Ag-SrTiO₃ nanotube arrays were successfully prepared for the degradation of methyl orange (MO) under ultraviolet irradiation. In order to form highly ordered SrTiO₃ nanotube arrays, the preparation of TiO₂ nanotube arrays by anodic oxidation of titanium foil in different electrolytes was investigated. The selected organic solvents in electrolytes include glycerol, dimethyl sulfoxide and glycol.

Preparation and characterization of Zr doped TiO2 nanotube arrays on the titanium sheet and their enhanced photocatalytic activity

This paper described a new method for the preparation of Zr doped TiO₂ nanotube arrays by electrochemical method. TiO₂ nanotube arrays were prepared by anodization with titanium anode and platinum cathode. Afterwards, the formed TiO₂ nanotube arrays and Pt were used as cathode and anode, respectively, for preparation of Zr/TiO₂ nanotube arrays in the electrolyte of 0.1 M Zr(NO₃)₄ with different voltage and post-calcination process.

The Synthesis and Photocatalytic Properties of TiO2 Nanotube Array by Starch‐Modified Anodic Oxidation

In this study, the characterization and photocatalytic activity of TiO₂ nanotube arrays prepared by anodization process with starch addition were investigated in detail. The results suggested that the optimum mass fraction of starch added in anodization process was 0.1%, with which TiO₂ nanotube arrays owning good tubular structure were synthesized. The tube length and average inner diameter of nanotubes were approximately 4 μm and 30 nm, respectively. Through the characterization of TiO₂ nanotube arrays by energy dispersive spectrometer, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, X‐ray diffraction, Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, it was found that the as‐prepared nanotubes possessed well uniformed and higher photodegradation responsive than the pure TiO₂. Moreover, it was expected that the as‐prepared nanotubes exhibited good photocatalytic activity for the degradation of RhB under UV‐light irradiation, which could be ascribed to their good morphology, enhanced UV‐light absorption property and electron transmission ability during the photocatalytic reaction. In addition, the nanotubes were not significantly regenerated during the cycling runs experiment. Overall, this study could provide a principle method to synthesize TiO₂ nanotube arrays with enhanced photocatalytic activity by anodization process with starch addition for environmental purification.     

TiO2 Nanotube Arrays Modified with Cr‐Doped SrTiO3 Nanocubes for Highly Efficient Hydrogen Evolution under Visible Light

In recent decades, solar‐driven hydrogen production over semiconductors has attracted tremendous interest owing to the global energy and environmental crisis. Among various semiconductor materials, TiO₂ exhibits outstanding photocatalytic properties and has been extensively applied in diverse photocatalytic and photoelectric systems. However, two major drawbacks limit practical applications, namely, high charge‐recombination rate and poor visible‐light utilization. In this work, heterostructured TiO₂ nanotube arrays grafted with Cr‐doped SrTiO₃ nanocubes were fabricated by simply controlling the kinetics of hydrothermal reactions. It was found that coupling TiO₂ nanotube arrays with regular SrTiO₃ nanocubes can significantly improve the charge separation. Meanwhile, doping Cr cations into SrTiO₃ nanocubes proved to be an effective and feasible approach to enhance remarkably the visible‐light response, which was also confirmed by theoretical calculations. As a result, the rate of photoelectrochemical hydrogen evolution of these novel heteronanostructures is an order of magnitude larger than those of TiO₂ nanotube arrays and other previously reported SrTiO₃/TiO₂ nanocomposites under visible‐light irradiation. Furthermore, the as‐prepared Cr‐doped SrTiO₃/TiO₂ heterostructures exhibit excellent durability and stability, which are favorable for practical hydrogen production and photoelectric nanodevices.     

Photocatalytic performance of silver-modified TiO2 embedded in poly(ethyl-acrylate-co-methyl metacrylate) matrix

The plasmonic Ag-TiO₂ (with 0.5 wt% Ag) photocatalyst was prepared on P25 TiO₂ surface. The presence of AgNPs on the titania was indicated by the UV–vis spectrum, which showed a plasmonic absorbance band in the visible range (λ _max?=?455 nm). XPS measurements suggested that Ag was in metallic (Ag) and in oxide forms on TiO₂. Ag-TiO₂ photocatalyst and TiO₂ were embedded in [poly(ethyl acrylate-co-methyl methacrylate; p(EA-co-MMA)] copolymer to attain mechanically stable, photocatalytically active nanocomposite films. The photooxidation of ethanol was slower on the photocatalyst/polymer nanocomposites, but it could be significantly improved by irradiating them with UV light. The photoaging was applied as a post-preparation treatment to improve the photocatalytic activity of the nanocomposite films. Changed surface morphology and the partial destruction of the polymer were supported by AFM and FTIR results. Contact angle measurements were used to determine the surface free energies of the prepared and the photoaged nanocomposite films.
