The composition and microstructure of the resultingsamples are studied by XRD and TEM. These results show that the range of particle size of TiO_2 isfrom 20 to 30 nm. The mechanism of TiO_2 photocatalysis reaction has been discussed extensively.Photocatalytic activities of nanometer TiO_2 are also evaluated by degradation of the crystal violetsolution. Experimental results indicate that the synergistic action of H_2O_2 and ultrasonic wavegreatly enhances photo-catalytic reaction of TiO_2.展开更多

The coating processes were carried out under different designed conditions,including various adhesives,solid content of TiO_2 slurry,times of cladding and followed heat-treat temperature. The interface and coating qualities were observed by scanning electron microscope. Coating defects,such as cracking,breaking off and the inhomogeneity of the cladding corresponds to different coating condition were analyzed. As a result, a well-combined and durable TiO_2 coating in optical fiber surface was obtained under definite optimizing experimental conditions and parameters.展开更多

The calcined TiO_ 2 thin films werecharacterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), atomic force microscopy (AFM), BET surface area and X-rayphotoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Photocatalytic activity was evaluated by photocatalyticdecoloration of methyl orange aqueous solution. The results showed that the TiO_2 thin filmsprepared by reverse micellar method (designated as RM-TiO_2 films) showed higher photocatalyticactivity than those by sol-gel method (designated as SG-TiO_2 films). This is attributed to the factthat the former is composed of smaller monodispersed spherical particles with a size of about 15 nmand possesses higher surface areas.展开更多

It was found that the sonocatalytic degradation effect of methyl orange in the presence of TiO_2 powder were much better than that without TiO_2, but the sonocatalytic activity of the nanometer anatase TiO_2 particle was obviously higher than that of ordinary anatase TiO_2 particle. Although there are many factors influencing sonocatalytic degradation of methyl orange, the experimental results showed that the best degradation ratio of methyl orange could be obtained when the experimental conditions were: initial concentration 15 mg/L, nanometer anatase TiO_2 adding amount 750 mg/L, ultrasonic frequency 40 kHz, output power 50 W, pH = 3.0 and temperature 40℃ within 150 min. In addition, the catalytic activity of reused nanometer anatase TiO_2 catalyst was also studied and found to decline gradually comparing with initial nanometer anatase TiO_2 catalyst. All experiments indicated that the method of the sonocatalytic degradation of organic pollutants in the presence of TiO_2 powder was an advisable choice for non- or low-transparent organic wastewaters.展开更多
