Synthesis; Characterization and Photocatalytic Activity Studying of TiO2

Abstract

Preparation of TiO2 nanoparticles (NPs) and X-ray diffraction (XRD).and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis of the nanoparticles. The synthesis of TiO2 nanoparticles was carried out consuming the sol-gel and direct precipitation methods. The TiO2 nanoparticles were calcined for 2 hours at temperatures of 200°C. X-Ray diffraction.(XRD) and scanning electronic microscopy were used to explore the structural, morphological, and chemical aspects of produced TiO2 nanoparticles in the second half (SEM). The range of 90 nm, the average crystallite sizes and particle sizes of catalyst nanoparticles were estimated. In this example, however, the crystallite size as determined by particle size was 50 nm. The structural analysis of TiO2 nanoparticles using XRD patterns revealed that anatase is the predominant phase and mixed phases are present in all of them.
