The prepared TiO 2 powder was characterized with X ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and BET surface areas. The photocatalytic activity was evaluated by the photocatalytic oxidation of acetone in air. The results showed that the photocatalytic activity of the TiO 2 powder prepared by this method approached that of Degussa P25. This may be attributed to the fact that the prepared TiO 2 powder had larger specific surface areas (265 m 2·g -1 ) and smaller crystallite size (about 5 nm), but relatively low crystallinity, as compared with Degussa P25.展开更多
