Photocatalytic TiO2–Copper oxides composite coatings were prepared by the mechanical coating technique (MCT) and subsequent heat oxidation. The results showed that Cu particles were mainly adhered to the surfaces of the Ti–Cu composite coatings. After heat oxidation,the Ti coatings were partly oxidized to rutile TiO2 and a Ti–TiO2–Cu2O–CuO composite microstructure was formed. These composite coatings had relative high photocatalytic activity because of the formation of the TiO2–Ti composite microstructure and TiO2–Cu2O–CuO p–n heterojunctions.

The photocatalyst coatings on alumina (Al2O3) balls had been prepared by mechanical coating technique (MCT) and subsequent oxidation process with Ti powder and Cr powder, and the influence of oxidation temperature on the photocatalyst composite coatings (Cr-TiO2) were investigated. The contrast experiments of the oxidation temperature and the usage of Cr powder had been carried out. The crystal structure and microstructure of the coatings were investigated. Photocatalytic activity of the coatings was evaluated and discussed. The XRD results showed that the mixed-phase of anatase (A) and rutile (R), and mass fraction of rutile (XR) had been increased with adding Cr, especially under 973 K. The SEM images indicated that the needle-like oxide was formed at the temperature of 973 K. The photocatalytic activity is relatively higher at 973 K under both of ultraviolet (UV) and visible light (VL). At the same time, the influence on photocatalytic activity of the photocatalyst coatings under UV or VL by adding Cr would guide the direction for the improvement of photocatalytic activity.

This paper presents impedance measurements of ferroelectric structures involving lead-free oxide and polymer-oxide composite coatings for sensing and energy harvesting applications. Three different ferroelectric materials grown by conventional microfabrication technologies on solid or flexible substrates are investigated for their basic resonant characteristics. Equivalent electrical circuit models are applied to all cases to explain the electrical behavior of the structures, according to the materials type and thickness. The analytical results show good agreement with the experiments carried out on a basic types of excited thin-film piezoelectric transducers. Additionally, temperature and frequency dependences of the dielectric permittivity and losses are measured for the polymer-oxide composite device in relation with the surface morphology before and after introduction of the polymer to the functional film.

AbstractThis work shows that the titanium dioxide coatings obtained by low-pressure cold gas spraying with the use of the sol–gel amorphous TiO2 powder are characterized by photocatalytic activity despite their partial amorphous content. Moreover, the research outcome suggests that the decomposition rate of organic pollutants is enhanced after long-term exposure to moisture. The condensation humidity test is not detrimental to the continuity and integrity of the coating, but the phase composition of coatings changes—with the exposure to water vapor, the portion of the amorphous phase crystallizes into brookite. The mechanism responsible for the conversion of amorphous TiO2 into brookite is attributed to the water-driven dissolution and reprecipitation of TiO6 octahedra. It has been shown that an additional parameter necessary for the stabilization of the brookite is the oxygen depletion of the amorphous structure of titanium dioxide. Considering the results presented in this paper and the advantages of a portable, low-pressure cold spray system for industrial applications, it is expected that TiO2 coatings produced from a sol–gel feedstock powder can be further developed and tested as efficient photocatalysts.
