in this study, the tio2 nanorods were synthesized from p25 tio2 nanoparticles by hydrothermal method in 10 m naoh solution. the effects of annealing temperatures on produced nanorods were investigated  by scanning  electron microscopy (sem) x-ray diffraction (xrd) and photoluminescence (pl) spectroscopy. diameter growth and  changes  of  surface  oxygen  defects of  synthesized nanorods are stu...

The catalytic oxidation of sulfur dioxide to sulfur trioxide over several binary (MxOy/TiO2) and ternary (V2O5/MXOY/TiO2) supported metal oxide catalysts was systematically investigated. The supported metal oxide components were essentially 100% dispersed as surface metal oxide species, as confirmed by Raman spectroscopy characterization. The sulfur dioxide oxidation turnover frequencies of the...

ag/tio2 photocatalytic nanoparticles by two methods, the sol – gel using a reducing agent and spattering was produced. crystalline phase of titanium dioxide was investigated in both. ag/tio2 peak in the sol – gel method at temperatures of 300,500 and 6000c were studied. ag/tio2 peak at different temperatures were determined using the spattering. xrd patterns of calcined this is tio2 and ag/ tio2.

Titanium dioxide/single-walled carbon nanotube (TiO2/SWNT) composites were prepared for photocatalytic applications. The composites were characterized using UV-visible and Raman spectroscopy, zeta-potential measurements, cyclic voltammetry (CV) coupled with a photoreactor, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) coupled with energy dispersive x-ray spectros...

A systematic catalytic investigation of the sulfur dioxide oxidation reactivity of several binary (MxOy/TiO2) and ternary (V2O5/ MxOy/TiO2) supported metal oxide catalysts was conducted. Raman spectroscopy characterization of the supported metal oxide catalysts revealed that the metal oxide components were essentially 100% dispersed as surface metal oxide species. Isolated fourfold coordinated ...

Vanadium dioxide (VO2) is a Mott phase transition compound that can be applied as a thermochromic smart material for energy saving and comfort, and titanium dioxide (TiO2) is a well-known photocatalyst for self-cleaning coatings. In this paper, we report a VO2@TiO2 core-shell structure, in which the VO2 nanorod core exhibits a remarkable modulation ability for solar infrared light, and the TiO2...

Nanometric titanium dioxide (TiO2) powder has been treated on the surface with octyltriethoxysilane in a supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO2) medium. The surface silanization conferred water repellency to the TiO2 powder. The effect of operating variables of the supercritical silanization process (pressure, temperature) on the surface characteristics of the material was analyzed. Finally, the e...

Plastics occupy wide place in the applications of automotive, electronics and house goods. Especially reinforced plastics become popular because of their high strength besides their advantages of low weight and easy manufacturability. In this study, mechanical and morphological properties of polypropylene (PP) and high density polyethylene (HDPE) matrix composites reinforced with surface modifi...
