Mean Size

Nano-TiO2 powders were synthesized by a sol-gel method using tetrabutyl titanate as the precursor, and then the composites of ACF(activated carbon fiber) supported nano-TiO2 was prepared by impregnating method. Tests of the amount of loaded TiO2 showed that three impregnating times was adequate. The Nano-TiO2 powders and composites were characterized by XRD, SEM, and BET surface area method. XRD tests showed that nano-TiO2 powders prepared by this way are anatase phase, and the mean size of the particles is about 11.5nm, when the calcination temperature is 673K. BET results showed that compared with original ACF, the surface area of the composites decreased slightly, indicating the impregnating process did not change the porous structure of original ACF. SEM result indicated that most of the nano-TiO2 particles as the size of 10-20nm were homogeneously dispersed on the surface of ACF.

Abstract Activated carbon fiber (ACF) was modified by Zn(NO3)2, ZnCl2 and Zn(CH3COO)2), respectively, and then TiO2 was loaded on the modified ACFs. The adsorption and photocatalysis performance were explored through the removal of toluene, and TiO2/ACF-Ac modified by Zn(CH3COO)2) with the best toluene performance was selected. The characterization results indicated that TiO2 was mainly loaded on the surface with large amount of oxygen-containing functional groups in anatase phase. The photoelectric chemical experiment results demonstrated that the modified ACFs remarkably improved the charge transmission and the separation efficiency of electrons and holes, and enhanced the utilization rate of sunlight. The adsorption saturation time reached 40 hours and photodegradation rate was 70%. The direct desorption of generated small molecule substances such as H2O and CO2 from the surface of the composites can achieve the in-situ regeneration of the adsorbent. Overall, the bifunctional catalysts provide a prospective way for the treatment of VOCs.

In Situ Method

Polyacrylonitrile-based activated carbon fiber (PAN-ACF)/SnO2 composites were synthesized by sol-gel and in-situ chemical synthesis method, respectively, and characterized by XRD, TGA, and SEM. The electrochemical properties of the resultant composites as negative electrodes in lithium-ion battery were also studied to investage the influence of different synthetic methods on the structure and electrochemical properties of the composites. The results show that the SnO2 in the composites prepared by both methods has a tetragonal rutile structure but the structure and electrochemical properties are different. With the similar composition, the composites prepared by in-situ method have uniform distribution of SnO2 particles, and exhibit better cyclic performance than those made by sol-gel method. The capacity of PAN-ACF/SnO2 composites with SnO2 content of 42.9% prepared by in-situ method remains 401.2 mAh g-1 after 50 charge/discharge cycles at a current density of 50 mAh g-1.
