Synthesis and Properties of Mesoporous TiO2 Using Nano-cellulose Template Prepared by Alkali Method

doi:10.3724/SP.J.1088.2011.10755

Abstract

Abstract: Mesoporous TiO₂ was synthesized by a hydrolysis-precipitation method using biological renewable resources of nano-cellulose as template and using TiCl₄ as precursor. The photocatalytic activity of TiO₂ was investigated by the degradation of phenol under ultraviolet light irradiation. Transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, thermogravimetry-differential thermal analysis, and N₂ adsorption-desorption were used for catalyst characterization. The results showed that TiO₂synthesized with alkali nano-cellulose template exhibited high activity under UV irradiation. The material had average size of about 13.5 nm in diameter and exhibited mesoporous structure with specific area of 176 m²/g and average pore size of 6.17 nm. The addition of alkali nano-cellulose template can retard phase transformation. The higher photocatalytic activity was attributed to the small grain size, more pores, and higher specific surface area of the catalyst.

Key words: titania, nano-cellulose, mesoporous, photocatalysis, template, phenol
