TiO2 Nanoparticles with Adjustable Phase Composition Prepared by an Inverse Microemulsion Method: Physicochemical Characterization and Photocatalytic Properties [PDF]
Titania nanoparticles (NPs) find wide application in photocatalysis, photovoltaics, gas sensing, lithium batteries, etc. One of the most important synthetic challenges is maintaining control over the polymorph composition of the prepared nanomaterial. In

Photocatalytic selective oxidation of 5-(hydroxymethyl)-2-furaldehyde to 2,5-furandicarbaldehyde in water by using anatase, rutile and brookite TiO2 nanoparticles [PDF]
5-(Hydroxymethyl)-2-furaldehyde (HMF) was selectively oxidized to 2,5-furandicarbaldehyde (FDC) in aqueous medium by using home-prepared (HP) anatase, rutile, and brookite TiO2 nanoparticles.

3D Self‐Supported Visible Light Photochemical Nanocatalysts [PDF]
This work focuses on 3D, self‐supported, nanofibrous TiO2 structures (nanogrids) prepared using blend electrospinning. The presence of anatase and brookite phases in Cu‐doped TiO2 nanogrids significantly enhances the photocatalytic properties of the ...

Tunable structure of TiO2 deposited by DC magnetron sputtering to adsorb Cr (VI) and Fe (III) from water [PDF]
TiO2 thin films with mixtures of the anatase, rutile, and brookite phases were deposited on glass substrates via magnetron sputtering. Based on XRD and Raman results, the TiO2-0.47 and TiO2-3.47 films principally contained the brookite phase, while the ...

Sodium doping in brookite TiO2 enhances its photocatalytic activity
We report in this work that sodium doping of brookite TiO2 effectively enhances its photocatalytic activity, which becomes three times higher than that of the quasi-spherical brookite TiO2.
