单斜与锐钛矿双晶相TiO2/MWNTs复合材料的制备及其可见光光催化活性

以超强耐酸碱的表面活性剂-丁基封端脂肪醇聚氧乙烯醚作为晶型调节剂,利用钛酸丁酯和氢氧化钠的水热反应制备了单斜相与锐钛矿相双晶相TiO₂/多壁碳纳米管(简称MWNTs)复合材料,并考察了复合材料的可见光光催化活性。结果显示:MWNTs的加入可调控TiO₂的晶相组成,增强TiO₂的光催化活性,其中含5%MWNTs的样品具有较高的催化降解效率;随煅烧温度的升高,样品的光催化活性大幅提升。其机理归因于(1)促进单斜相和锐钛矿相双晶相结构的形成;(2)碳纳米管优良的导电作用及碳纳米管/TiO₂间的异质结效应;(3)高温下碳纳米管分解产生的碳元素掺杂作用。     

具有高光催化活性的黑色TiO2（B）/锐钛矿双晶TiO2-x纳米纤维

高效TiO2基光催化材料的开发一直是催化领域的研究热点,主要的策略是如何有效地分离光生载流子.制备多晶相的TiO2材料可引入异质/相结结构使电子与空穴朝不同方向移动,从而避免电子与空穴复合;另外,在TiO2中掺杂其他金属或非金属也可以有效地降低电子与空穴的复合率,掺杂的元素作为电子捕获阱俘获光生电子,以实现电子空穴的有效分离.近些年,作为一种全新的掺杂剂,氧空穴可以有效改善TiO2的光催化活性,所制TiO2具有可见光的全光谱吸收能力,因此该类TiO2呈现出黑色.通过上述方法均可以制备出高活性TiO2基光催化材料,如果能够将这些方法耦合一起,则可能制备出活性更高的光催化剂.因此,本文将异相结结构和空穴掺杂耦合起来,用多孔钛酸盐衍生物在H2中高温焙烧制得一种全新的黑色TiO2(B)/锐钛矿双晶TiO2–x纳米纤维.不同于其他TiO2基光催化材料,该样品仅由Ti和O元素组成,通过Ti和O元素的组合,形成了双晶结构和空穴掺杂两种特殊的结构,借助场发射(FESEM)、拉曼光谱(Raman)、氮气物理吸脱附、X射线光电子能谱(XPS)、热重(TG)、紫外可见漫反射光谱(UV-Vis)和荧光光谱(PL)等表征分析了样品的结构及其光催化性能间构效关系. FESEM结果显示,黑色TiO2(B)/锐钛矿双晶TiO2–x为长1–5mm、宽0.2mm的纤维结构, Raman结果表明,锐钛矿相在特征波段(140 cm–1左右)和TiO2(B)的特征波段(220–260 cm–1)均发生蓝移,说明该两相中均存在氧空穴;该样表面未检测到Ti3+,因此氧空穴可能分散在TiO2(B)和锐钛矿相的体相中.根据黑色TiO2(B)/锐钛矿双晶TiO2–x和白色TiO2(B)/锐钛矿双晶TiO2的失重差,估算出前者的O/Ti原子比为1.97.光催化降解甲基橙实验结果显示,黑色TiO2(B)/锐钛矿双晶TiO2–x的光催化活性是白色双晶TiO2的4.2倍,锐钛矿TiO2的10.5倍,且连续反应10次后未出现失活现象,显示出了良好的光催化稳定性.前期,我们已经证明了白色TiO2(B)/锐钛矿双晶TiO2由于具有TiO2(B)和锐钛矿的异相结结构,致使其电子空穴有效地分离,从而表现出优异的光催化活性;本文的PL结果显示,由于氧空穴的引入,异相结与氧空穴两者共同作用,进一步促进了黑色TiO2(B)/锐钛矿双晶TiO2–x电子与空穴的有效分离,因此黑色TiO2(B)/锐钛矿双晶TiO2–x表现出高的光催化活性.由于其特殊的结构,黑色TiO2(B)/锐钛矿双晶TiO2–x纳米纤维将在环境与能源领域表现出良好的应用前景.

Carbon-doped anatase TiO2 nanotube array/glass and its enhanced photocatalytic activity under solar light

To enhance the photocatalytic activity under solar light, highly ordered TiO₂ nanotube arrays (TNAs) film with anatase phase was fabricated on glass and successfully doped with carbon at various temperatures of 450–550 °C. The characterization results indicate that, after carbon doping, the TNAs still remained nanotubular structure with anatase phase. But their optical response shifted from UV to the visible light region and the recombination of photogenerated carriers was suppressed effectively. It is more important that the carbon-doped TNAs/glass (C-TNAs) samples exhibited high solar light photocatalytic activity, and 68%, 61% and 56% MO was photodegraded in 150 min by the C-TNAs calcined at 550, 500 and 450 °C, respectively. Especially, the apparent reaction rate constant of C-TNAs calcined at 550 (k, 0.065 min⁻¹) with the highest activity is 3.6 times that of pristine anatase TNAs (k, 0.018 min⁻¹). It is clear that carbon doping enhanced the photocatalytic activity under sunlight at optimized annealing temperature. The efficient activity could be attributed to the synergetic effects of strong visible light absorption, good crystallization, large surface, and enhanced separation of photoinduced carriers.     

Preparation and Characterization of Bismuth Doped TiO2 Thin Films

A series of Bismuth-doped titanium oxide (Bi-doped TiO₂) thin films on glass substrates have been prepared by sol-gel dip coating process. The prepared catalysts were characterized by XRD and XPS. The photocatlytic activity of the thin film catalysts was evaluated through the photodegradation of aqueous methyl orange under UV illumination. The experiments demonstrated that the Bi-doped TiO₂ prepared was anatase phase. The doped bismuth was in the 3⁺ oxidation state. The presence of Bi significantly enhanced the photocatalytic activity of TiO₂ films. At calcination temperature of 500°C, with doping concentration of 2 wt %, Bi-doped TiO₂ thin film showed the highest photocatalyic activity.     

Characterization and activity of visible-light-driven TiO2 photocatalyst codoped with nitrogen and cerium

Nitrogen and cerium codoped TiO₂ photocatalysts were prepared by a modified sol-gel process with doping precursors of cerium nitrate and urea, and characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetry-differential scanning calorimetry (TG-DSC), X-ray photoelectron spectra (XPS) and ultraviolet-visible light diffuse reflectance spectra (UV-vis DRS). Results indicate that anatase TiO₂ is the dominant crystalline type in as-prepared samples, and CeO₂ crystallites appear as the doping ratio of Ce/Ti reaches to 3.0 at%. The TiO₂ starts to transform from amorphous phase to anatase at 987.1 K during calcination, according to the TG-DSC curves. The XPS show that three major metal ions of Ce³⁺, Ce⁴⁺, Ti⁴⁺ and one minor metal ion of Ti³⁺ coexist on the surface. The codoped TiO₂ exhibits significant absorption within the range of 400-500 nm compared to the non-doped and only nitrogen-doped TiO₂. The enhanced photocatalytic activity of the codoped TiO₂ is demonstrated through degradation of methyl orange under visible light irradiation.

Photocatalytic activities of C–N-doped TiO2 nanotube array/carbon nanorod composite

A C–N-doped TiO₂ nanotube (NT)/carbon nanorod composite is fabricated by chemical vapor deposition (CVD). Carbon nanorods are grown from the TiO₂ NTs, and partly graphitized, while TiO₂ is in the mixture of anatase and rutile. The C–N doping shifts the absorption edge of TiO₂ NTs to the visible light region; the formed carbon nanorods promote the charge carrier transfer from the TiO₂ surface to the electrolyte. Under the simulated solar light irradiation, the C–N-doped TiO₂ NTs show higher photocatalytic activity in the degradation of methyl orange (MO) than the undoped TiO₂ NTs.

Synthesis and photocatalytic activity for water-splitting reaction of nanocrystalline mesoporous titania prepared by hydrothermal method

Nanocrystalline mesoporous TiO₂ was synthesized by hydrothermal method using titanium butoxide as starting material. XRD, SEM, and TEM analyses revealed that the synthesized TiO₂ had anatase structure with crystalline size of about 8 nm. Moreover, the synthesized titania possessed a narrow pore size distribution with average pore diameter and high specific surface area of 215 m²/g. The photocatalytic activity of synthesized TiO₂ was evaluated with photocatalytic H₂ production from water-splitting reaction. The photocatalytic activity of synthesized TiO₂ treated with appropriate calcination temperature was considerably higher than that of commercial TiO₂ (Ishihara ST-01). The utilization of mesoporous TiO₂ photocatalyst with high crystallinity of anatase phase promoted great H₂ production. Furthermore, the reaction temperature significantly influences the water-splitting reaction.     

Synthesis of nanosized TiO2/SiO2 particles using microwave processes and their photocatalytic activity on the decomposition of orange II

The nanosized titania and TiO₂/SiO₂ particles were prepared by the microwave-hydrothermal method. The effect of physical properties TTIP/TEOS ratio and calcination temperature has been investigated. The major phase of the pure TiO₂ particle is of the anatase structure, and a rutile peak was observed above 800°C. In TiO₂/SiO₂ particles, however, no significant rutile phase was observed, although the calcination temperature was 900°C. No peaks for the silica crystal phase were observed at either silica/titania ratio. The crystallite size of TiO₂/SiO₂ particles decreases as compared to pure TiO₂ at high calcination temperatures. The TiO₂/SiO₂ particles show higher activity on the photocatalytic decomposition of orange II as compared to pure TiO₂ particles.
