Mixed Phase Anatase/Rutile Titanium Dioxide Nanotubes for Enhanced Photocatalytic Degradation of Methylene-Blue.
In: Nano-Micro Letters, 3 (4), pp. 236-241. [Article]
Abstract
Titanium dioxide Nanotubes (TNTs) prepared by electroless deposition have been annealed at air ambient and low temperature. As a result, the anatase/rutile phase composition of the TNTs can be tailored to the needs of later applications. Nanotubes with anatase/rutile mixed phase ratio of 4:1 have been produced in this report and further examined for their photocatalytical behavior. The photocatalytical properties of the TNTs have been observed by degradation of methylene-blue in aqueous solution under low power UV-light irradiation. The results shown in this report are based on the synergetic effect between rutile and anatase, which results in the mixed phase TiO2 nanotubes having enhanced photocatalytical properties.
