Abstract EN
TiO2 nanoparticle/nanotube composites were prepared by a vapor hydrolysis method and were characterized by X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, and N2 isothermal adsorption-desorption.
The well-crystallized TiO2 nanoparticles were uniformly deposited onto the surface of TiO2 nanotubes.
The photocatalytic activity of the composites was evaluated by the degradation of acid red G and phenol solution under UV irradiation.
The results showed that the photocatalytic activities of the modified composites were significantly enhanced compared to the pristine nanotubes.
In particular, the 50 wt% TiO2 nanoparticle/nanotube composite obtained at 120°C exhibited a remarkable ARG degradation efficiency of 90% after irradiation for 30 minutes and a phenol degradation efficiency of 93% after irradiation for 2 hours.
