Potential Applications

Nano titanium dioxide (TiO2) with photocatalytic activity was firstly modified by diethanolamine, and it was then doped with broad spectrum antibacterial silver (Ag) by in situ method. Further, both Ag doped TiO2-chitosan (STC) and TiO2-chitosan (TC) composites were prepared by the inverse emulsion cross-linking reaction. The antibacterial activities of STC composites were studied and their antibacterial mechanisms under visible light were investigated. The results show that in situ doping and inverse emulsion method led to good dispersion of Ag and TiO2 nanoparticles on the cross-linked chitosan microsphere. The STC with regular particle size of 1–10 μm exhibited excellent antibacterial activity against E. coli, P. aeruginosa and S. aureus under visible light. It is believed that STC with particle size of 1–10 μm has large specific surface area to contact with bacterial cell wall. The increased antibacterial activity was attributed to the enhancement of both electron-hole separations at the surface of nano-TiO2 by the silver ions under the visible light, and the synergetic and sustained release of strong oxidizing hydroxyl radicals of nano-TiO2, together with silver ions against bacteria. Thus, STC composites have great potential applications as antibacterial agents in the water treatment field.

Dioxide Suspension

Using scanning electron microscope, the microscopic pictures of the surface on sediment have been obtained from the sub-micron titanium dioxide suspensions without dispersant or adding different types of dispersants. Deposits of titanium dioxide suspension have been observed and the mechanism of the dispersant has been analyzed. Meanwhile, deposits of titanium dioxide gray distribution figure have been gained by self-compiled Matlab program, which proved that the surface sediments is fractal, and the fractal dimension has been calculated under different conditions. The rules between suspension stability and fractal dimension have been achieved.
