Photocathodic protection coatings have been widely applied in various areas such as ship and architectural protection, or chemical industry. In this work, a composite of titanium dioxide loaded with reduced graphene oxide (RGO/TiO 2 ) was prepared and used as filler on waterborne polyacrylate (PA) coating to reinforce the metal protection against corrosion. Compared with the current filler of zinc phosphate used for anticorrosive coating, the photoelectrochemical properties of RGO/TiO 2 -PA coating exhibit improved photocathodic protection under visible light illumination since RGO/TiO 2 composite has significant superiority in enhancing metal protection due to its dispersion, micropore blocking ability, and photoelectrochemical conversion performance. The mechanism of anticorrosion reinforcement of RGO/TiO 2 -PA coating was hypothesized that graphene provides an extrabarrier layer to obstruct corrosive in dark condition and photocathodic protection under lighting. © 2019 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Formation of heterostructure and nanostructure is promising approach to improving the photocatalytic activity of TiO 2 based photocatalysts . In this work, MoS 2 @TiO 2 @poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) was prepared by freeze drying of hydrothermally treated electrospun PMMA nanofibers containing titanium n-butoxide and MoS 2 nanosheets . As-prepared nanocomposite revealed a 3D nanofiber network structure with high specific surface (83.6 m 2 /g), in which MoS 2 nanosheets loaded with TiO 2 nanoparticles were distributed on the surface of PMMA fibers. MoS 2 @TiO 2 @PMMA showed better photocatalytic performance than MoS 2 @PMMA, TiO 2 @PMMA, MoS 2 @TiO 2 and MoS 2 @P25@PMMA towards the photodegradation of methyl orange (MO) under UV illumination. Typically, MoS 2 @TiO 2 @PMMA (100 mg) could degrade MO (10 mg/L, 100 mL) completely in 40 min under UV irradiation , revealing good photocatalytic activity . Moreover, the nanocomposite could be facilely recovered by filtration, and maintain almost the same photocatalytic activity after cycling tests for ten times, indicating excellent stability and recyclability. The enhanced photocatalytic performance of the nanocomposite might relate to the heterostructure between MoS 2 and TiO 2 to suppress the recombination of photo-induced charge, and the 3D hierarchical nanoweb structure to afford large specific surface area and high density of active sites.

A novel Pb 2+ ion selective electrode based on a polyaniline-doped titanium dioxide (PANI-TiO 2 ) solid contact, denoted herein as GC/PANI-TiO 2 /Pb 2+ -ISE, was successfully developed. The GC/PANI-TiO 2 /Pb 2+ -ISE exhibited a stable and rapid potential response to Pb 2+ ions, with a linear response over the concentration range 10 −3 -10 −9 M, a detection limit of ∼10 −9.1 M and a response time of only 10–15 s. The PANI-TiO 2 solid contact layer possessed a large specific capacitance , thereby effectively promoting ion-to-electron transduction and enhancing the output stability (potential drift, 122.6 μV/s). The developed electrode maintained excellent performance during continuous use, showing a linear response range of 10 −3 -10 −7 M with no obvious changes in the potential response time or response slope (29 ± 0.2 mV/decade) over six weeks. Results encourage the wider use of conducting polymer-semiconductor solid contacts in ion selective electrode development.

Employing TiO 2 as a gas sensing material is advantageous owing to its excellent hydrogen surface receptiveness and stability under extreme conditions. However, their commercial applications are constrained by limited operating temperature range (150–400 °C) and poor selectivity. In this work, we demonstrate that the ordered mesoporous structured TiO 2 is highly favourable for room temperature hydrogen sensing. The sensors prepared with evaporation induced self-assembly (EISA) showed best response ~2.98 × 10 2 toward 1000 ppm H 2 at room temperature with a sensitivity of ~4.6 ± 1.5 × 10 6 ohm/ppm. Moreover, the sensor showed a response time of ~85 s (recovery time of ~198 s) with full baseline recovery and a selectivity factor of ~290 to 1000 ppm of interfering reducing gases CO and CH 4 at room temperature. With a power consumption of ~1 × 10 −9 W the sensors are incredibly suitable for practical applications. We performed XRD, SEM, TEM, XPS, BET and PL characterization not only to confirm the crystal structure, morphology at nanoscale, surface chemical identification, specific surface area, pore size and photo-generated charge species that contribute to the electronic transport properties but sensing mechanism also.

The roles of benzoic acid and its derivatives in the photocatalytic degradation of tartrazine (TZ) by titanium dioxide have been studied. A series of comparative experiments were carried out, such as the experimental comparisons of concentrations, pH values, effects on the para-position of benzoic acid, gas atmospheres, and different target pollutants. It should be noted that the degradation rate of TZ solution without benzoic acid and benzoic acid after degradation for 90 min was 28.69 and 99.08%, respectively. The reason for the above results is that benzoic acid acts as an electron donor to react with photogenerated holes, suppressing the recombination of photogenerated holes and electrons, and thus causing a significant increase in the degradation rate. Moreover, the degradation process is mainly induced by O2•– and photogenerated holes (h+). It is the first time that the benzoic acid/TiO2 system has been used to degrade the TZ dye. In addition, the benzoic acid/TiO2 system is also suitable for the degradation of other organic dyes such as methyl orange, rhodamine B, methylene blue, and methyl violet.

A simple way to introduce nickel doping into TiO 2 nanotube arrays by anodizing Ti-Ni alloy followed with thermal annealing is presented. The additional nickel has significant effect on the phase transformation behavior of TiO 2 nanotubes, which is of great significance in the construction of anatase-rutile heterojunction. GAXRD and DSC analysis results clearly demonstrate that the doping of nickel largely decreases the anatase-rutile phase transformation temperature of TiO 2 nanotubes from approximately 600–450 °C. XPS and TEM analyses reveal the nickel dopants mainly exist in the form of Ni 2+ , and successfully enter the titainia lattice by replacing Ti 4+ . The substitution doping of nickel and the subsequently increase of oxygen vacancies play important role in promoting the phase transformation from anatase to rutile.

In this work, a mesoporous structure TiO 2 /SiO 2 (M-TS) composite with excellent adsorption and photocatalytic properties was fabricated by a sol–gel process combined with calcination. The structure of the samples was characterised by scanning electron microscopy and Brunauer–Emmett–Teller analysis. The factors influencing the adsorption behaviours of methylene blue (MB) onto M-TS, including ingredient, dosage, initial concentration and temperature were investigated. The M-TS was produced by removing poly(vinylpyrrolidone) from the precursor gel was vital to the excellent adsorption capacity. Furthermore, the isotherm and kinetic data were fitted by using Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm models, pseudo-first-order and pseudo-second-order equations, and the intra-particle diffusion model. The Langmuir isotherm model and the pseudo-second-order kinetics were the most suitable models for describing the adsorption of MB onto M-TS. It was also found that the adsorption capacity of cationic dyes on M-TS is better than that of anionic dyes. The experimental results of adsorption and photodegradation proved that improvement of adsorption capacity enhances the decolourisation efficiency. This work shows that the M-TS could be used as an effective adsorbent and photocatalyst to remove cationic dyes from wastewater.

Various TiO 2 /ZnIn 2 S 4 composites with an embedded structure have been developed by a facile one-pot synthesis. The activities of all samples were estimated by photocatalytic reduction of Cr(VI) under visible light (λ>420 nm). Results showed that the electrostatic interaction and self-assembly effect make TiO 2 nanoparticles inserting into ZnIn 2 S 4 nanosheets. The resulting TiO 2 /ZnIn 2 S 4 composites show much better photocatalytic performance for Cr(VI) reduction than that of pristine TiO 2 and ZnIn 2 S 4 . Especially, the photocatalytic efficiency of T/ZIS-0.3 (TiO 2 loading of 30 wt%) is approximate 3 times as high as that of pristine ZnIn 2 S 4 (TiO 2 exhibited almost no activity). The embedded structure of TiO 2 /ZnIn 2 S 4 offers apparent increase of specific surface area, visible-light absorption and electrons transfer efficiency, which are responsible for the boosted photocatalytic activity. This work would inspire researchers to construct high-efficiency semiconductor composites for photocatalytic environmental governance.

TiO2micro-/nano-structures with different morphologies have been successfully synthesized via a hydrothermal method. The effects of the solvents on the morphology and structure of the obtained products have been studied. The objective of the present paper is to compare the photocatalytic properties of the obtained TiO2products. During the synthesis process, the tetrabutyl titanate and titanium (IV) fluoride were used as the titanium source. The obtained micro-/nano-structures were characterized by field-emission scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction analysis, and nitrogen adsorption-desorption isotherms. The photocatalytic activity of the samples was evaluated by the degradation of Rhodamine B solution under simulated solar irradiation. It is found that the morphologies and structures of TiO2have a great influence on its photocatalytic activity. Compared with other samples, TiO2flower clusters assembled with nanorods exhibited a superior photocatalytic activity in the degradation of Rhodamine B.Keywords:TiO2;different morphologies;photocatalytic activity;formation mechanisms

In recent years, nanoscale particles have been applied in the utilisation of solar energy due to their excellent properties. In light of the multiple functions of composite nanoparticles, some solar-assisted systems have been developed and exhibited comprehensive photoelectric and photo-thermal transformation effects. However, the presence of nanoparticles in these systems can cause secondary pollution and severely limit large-scale application of the solar technology. Herein we developed a recyclable photo-thermal conversion and purification system based on Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles decorated with TiO 2 nanoparticles, which could be separated from water under the action of a magnetic force. Under the solar illumination power of 1 sun (1 sun = 1000 W·m −2 ), thermal receiver efficiency of 76.4% and Rhodamine B degradation efficiency of 85% were obtained with a 0.1 g/L Fe 3 O 4 @TiO 2 nanofluid. With the increase of the solar illumination power, the degradation efficiency has been increased to 94%. The recovery rate and efficiency could be controlled by adjusting the magnetic field strength and the magnetic property of Fe 3 O 4 @TiO 2 nanoparticles. This study provides an approach to not only significantly reduce material consumption in the design of solar devices, but also to realise broad solar energy applications for water purification and photo-thermal conversion.

Titanium oxide is a potential high temperature reflective material due to its high melting point, large refractive index , and suitable band gap. The flexible TiO 2 ceramic fibers membrane was successfully fabricated by sol–gel method using the polyacetylacetonetitanium (PAT) as the precursor. In order to obtain high-quality TiO 2 fibers, the PAT precursor with good stability and good spinnability was optimized by adjusting the molar ratio of acetylacetone to Ti to 1:1. The TiO 2 fibers heat-treated at 700 °C had a diameter of 400–500 nm. The crystal phase of TiO 2 fibers was anatase, and the surface of fibers was smooth without obvious defects. In addition, the TiO 2 ceramic fibers membrane heat-treated at 700 °C had good flexibility and tensile strength , and the average reflectance in the wavelength range of 500–2500 nm was up to 91.3%. The fibers membrane exhibits a significant reflection effect in the practical experiments and maintained good morphology of the fibers after 1200 °C test.

A convenient photoelectrochemical sensor was constructed based on the synergistic contributions of an ultrathin BiOCl nanosheet and anchored TiO2 nanoparticles to detect the organophosphorus pesticide chlorpyrifos. As expected, the fabricated heterostructure showed a distinct improvement in photocurrent intensity compared with pristine BiOCl and TiO2. This remarkable enhancement may be attributed to the separation and transfer of photogenerated charge carries, which benefit from intimate interfacial interactions between the ultrathin BiOCl nanosheets and TiO2 nanoparticles. Based on the robust photocurrent signal, a novel PEC sensor was established for the sensitive and selective detection of chlorpyrifos. The as-fabricated PEC sensor demonstrates many advantages such as a wide linear range of 1–12 μM, a low detection limit of 0.11 μM, S/N = 3, and remarkable convenience, which provides a general format for chlorpyrifos detection in green vegetable analysis.
