It is shown that the rutile could hardly catalyze the degradation of the methyl orange and anatase is more effective for catalyzing the degradation than rutile. Moreover, the activities of mixed crystalline forms of TiO 2 vary with the change of the values of A/R , the best of which is 9∶1. Some characterizations with XRD, XPS and SPS were performed and explanations to the phenomena that exist in photodegradation are given out.展开更多

The grain size, given out by Sherrer formula, is 19 nm. With polystyrene dissolved in toluene as binder, TiO 2 adhered to the glassfibre substrate. By this method, the powder was immobilized and the crystal form, grain size and photocatalysis activities were well maintained. Photocatalysis degradation properties were investigated by putting the TiO 2 immobilization film in the methyl orange aqueous system. The results indicated that the differences of degradation rate between the TiO 2 immobilization film and powder were not obvious, which made waste water treatment using photocatalysis degradation technique possible in the practical application.
