掺镧TiO2纳米薄膜材料的制备与光催化性能研究

用溶胶-凝胶法研究了掺镧TiO_2纳米薄膜材料。在钛醇盐溶液前驱体中,通过提拉方式镀膜在玻璃上,从而形成自净玻璃。论文对不同的掺镧量、不同的聚乙二醇加入量以及不同镀膜次数的TiO_2材料的透光性、光催化降解性分别进行了测试和研究,并对相关机理进行了探讨。研究表明:对于单层膜的TiO_2材料,掺镧与不掺镧对透光性的影响不大,但掺镧后光催化活性大大提高;对于单层膜的TiO_2材料,随着聚乙二醇的增多,透光率整体呈下降趋势,催化活性先增加后减小。对于多层膜的TiO_2材料,随着层数增加,在紫外光区,透光性变化不大,在可见光区,透光性有所下降。在两层膜后,层数的增多对催化活性影响不大。由实验知:在100mL基体溶液中,当掺入0.5gLa(NQ_3)_3·nH_2O,加入0.2g聚乙二醇,镀膜两层时,透光性好且光催化活性也高。

Study on Preparation of Lanthanum-doped TiO2 Nanometer Thin Film Materials and Its Photocatalytic Activity

In this paper, lanthanum-doped TiO2 nanometer film materials coated on glass were prepared in Ti(OBu)4 precursor solutions by sol-gel processing. Transmittance and photocatalytic activity were respectively investigated and tested for these nanometer thin films prepared with different amount of lanthanum (La), different amount of polyethylene glycol (PEG), and different coating layer times. Some reactive mechanisms were also discussed. For one layer La-addition had little effect on the film transmissivity; but the photocatalytic activity was significantly improved due to La-addition. With increasing PEG, the transmittance of the film decreased for one layer film ; but its photocatalytic activity did not rise. Increasing layer number did not affect the transmissivity of multilayer film. After coating two times, increasing layer number did not significantly improve the photocatalytic activity. The highest photocatalytic activity and best transmissivity were obtained for two layer TiO2 film when the dosage of lanthanum was 0.5 g and the dosage of polyethylene was 0.2 g in the precursor solutions. These materials will probably be used in the protection of environment, waste water treatment, and air purification.
