Antibacterial Ability

The TiO2/SiO2 nanocomposite has been synthesized by a sol-gel method and investigated the effect of the SiO2 content (0, 5, 10, 15, 20, and 50%) on the rutile-to-anatase phase transition of TiO2 NPs. In order to increase the photocatalytic efficiency of the nanocomposite and decrease the price of material, the TiO2/SiO2 Nc with content SiO2 of 15% sample is chosen for preparing silicate coating. The efficiency of photocatalytic MB and antibacterial ability in the air of W silicate coating (adding TiO2/SiO2 Nc (15%)) achieve almost 100% for 60 h and 94.35% for 3 h, respectively. While the efficiency of photocatalytic MB and antibacterial ability of WO silicate coating (adding commercial TiO2/SiO2) is about 25–30% for 60 h and 6.02% for 3 h, respectively. The presence of TiO2/SiO2 Nc (15%) with a larger surface area in W silicate coating can provide increased centers for absorption, photocatalytic reaction, and the contact between sample and bacteria lead to enhance the photocatalytic and antibacterial ability of W silicate coating.

Photocatalytic Activities

The purpose of this research was to study phase transformation and photocatalytic properties of TiO2powders. TiO2powders were prepared by microwave-assisted sol-gel method. The prepared powders were refluxed at 18 W to 450 W for 1 h and dried at 180 W for 1 h by a conventional microwave oven. The phase transformations of powders were characterized by XRD and photocatalytic activities of powders were evaluated by UV-Vis spectrophotometer. The results show all samples reveal that only the anatase phase and has the crystallite size is 13.8, 10.3 and 9.2 nm when the refluxed at 180, 300 and 450 W. It was found that TiO2powders refluxed at 450 W were found to give the highest photocatalytic efficiency is about 90.06% under UV irradiation for 6 h.

Spherical Silica

In this present study, the spherical silica support was synthesized from tetraethyloxysilane (TEOS), water, sodium hydroxide, ethylene glycol and n-dodecyltrimethyl ammonium bromide (C12TMABr). The particle size was controlled by variation of the ethylene glycol co-solvent weight ratio of a sol-gel method preparation in the range of 0.10 to 0.50. In addition, the particle size apparently increases with high weight ratio of co-solvent, but the particle size distribution was broader. The standard deviation of particle diameter is large when the co-solvent weight ratio is more than 0.35 and less than 0.15. However, the specific surface area was similar for all weight ratios ranging from 1000 to 1300 m2/g. The synthesized silica was spherical and has high specific surface area. The cobalt was impregnated onto the obtained silica to produce the cobalt catalyst used for CO2 hydrogenation.</

NanosizedTiO2powder was synthesized via sol-gel method using titanium tetraisopoxide (TPT) as the precursor. Mol ratios of water to TPT were varied from 1 (Powder A), 2 (Powder B), 3 (Powder C), and 4 (Powder D) to evaluate effect of hydrolysis degree. TG/DTA curves showed that amorphous phase turned to anatase crystal structure at ca. 415, 337, 310, and339∘C for Powders A, B, C, and D, respectively. XRD analysis showed that all the synthesizedTiO2powders were 100% in anatase form with Powders B and C showing considerably higher crystallinities. The powders obtained at lower water to TPT mol ratios were spherical in shape and they became bar-like shapes higher mol ratios. The lower hydrolysis degree led to higher surface area of the Powder A (24.8 m2/g) compared to Powder B (14.6 m2/g). From phenol photocatalytic measurement, Powder B was the most efficient attributed to its higher crystallinity.

The dye-pigments and organic compounds are known as significant pollutants in wastewater of textile industrial. Among of treatment technologies, the photocatalysis using TiO2 nano particles has potential on-site process for removing the dye-pigments and organic compounds, due to no hazardous waste and inexpensive. In this work, the TiO2 nanoparticles were synthesized by two different methods of hydrothermal and sol-gel. Nanoparticle of TiO2 synthesized by hydrothermal method contained pure anatase phase as similar as the TiO2 nanoparticles synthesized by sol-gel method. However, the TiO2 synthesized by hydrothermal method provided the higher specific surface area and pore volume rather than the another TiO2. Further, the high efficiency 86% of methylene blue photodegradation was observed during the by using TiO2 synthesized by hydrothermal method as photocatalyst, whereas the efficiency was only 72% for TiO2 synthesized by sol-gel method.

TiO2 modified Fe3O4 nanocomposite as photocatalyst in CO2 indirect reduction was synthesized by an ultrasonic-assisted sol-gel method and its photocatalytic activity was studied as well. The modification of the TiO2 composite was attempted to modify titanium dioxide to have better performance as a photocatalyst. Magnetite synthesis was carried out by the sono-coprecipitation method with the addition of the capping agent. The magnetite was coated with TiO2 via the sol-gel method under ultrasonic irradiation. The products were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transforms infrared spectrophotometry (FT-IR), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and turbidimetry. The final product was also analyzed by diffuse reflectance UV-Visible (DR-UV) and scanning electron microscopy-energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM-EDX). The product of indirect reduction was analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Photocatalytic reaction with Fe3O4/TiO2 nanocomposite produced a higher concentration of methanol than using TiO2. Methanol concentration produced from the photocatalytic reaction using TiO2 and Fe3O4/TiO2 was 6.63% and 16.82%.

Doped Titania

Pure titania ( TiO 2) nanopowders and TiO 2 doped with 10 mol % of vanadium ions ( V 3+) are synthesized by sol-gel method. The dependence of structural characteristics of nanopowders on synthesis conditions is investigated by X-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy. Very intensive modes observed in Raman spectra of all nanopowders are assigned to anatase phase of TiO 2. Additional Raman modes of extremely low intensity which can be related to the presence of small amount of brookite amorphous phase are observed in pure TiO 2 nanopowders. In V -doped nanopowders anatase was the only TiO 2 phase detected. The variations in duration and heating rate of calcination influence slightly the Raman spectra of pure TiO 2, but have a great impact on Raman modes of anatase, as well as the additional Raman modes related to the presence of vanadium oxides in V -doped samples.
