Comparison of titanium dioxides prepared from different materials and its photocatalytic evaluation

초록

Titanium dioxides were synthesized from two different titanium salts, which contained chlorine and sulfur respectively. Titanium dioxide prepared from TiCi<inf>4</inf> and had a particle size of ca. 20nm and its phase transition from anatase to rutile stated at 500°C. Titanium dioxide from TiOSO<inf>4</inf> had a particle size of ca. 50nm and retained its anatase and sperit structure until 700°C by calcination. For the photocatalytic evaluation of these titanium dioxides, photocatlytic oxidation of organic modeul pollutant, humic acid, have been conducted. UV absorbance decrease by titanium dioxides prepared from both from TiCi<inf>4</inf> and TiOSO<inf>4</inf> at room temperature showed very similar results, compared to titanium dioxide prepared from TiCi<inf>4</inf> at higher temperature. © (2013) Trans Tech Publications, Switzerland.
