研究目的
Investigating the preparation and performance of TiO2 microspheres with tunable pore and chamber size for enhanced photocatalytic CO2 reduction under simulated sunlight.
研究成果
TiO2 hollow microspheres with tunable pore and chamber size exhibit superior photocatalytic CO2 reduction performance due to enhanced CO2 diffusion and adsorption, leading to higher CO production rates under simulated sunlight. The method presents a promising strategy for developing efficient TiO2 catalysts for CO2 reduction.
研究不足
The study focuses on the photocatalytic reduction of CO2 under simulated sunlight, and the performance under natural sunlight conditions may vary. The scalability and cost-effectiveness of the synthesis method for large-scale applications are not discussed.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
A simple solventhermal method was used to prepare TiO2 microspheres with different structures (solid, yolk/shell, and hollow).
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Commercial P25 powder was used as the starting material.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
SEM (QUANTA 250 FEG), XRD (Bruker D diffractometer), HRTEM (JEOL, JSM-2100), XPS (Thermo Fisher ESCALAB 250), BET surface area analyzer (Micromeritics BEL sorp), Raman spectroscopy (Renishaw in Via), UV–vis DRS (Perkin-Elmer Lambda 950), photocurrent and electrochemical impedance (CHI 660D workstation).
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
The synthesis involved dissolving P25 in a mixture of H2O2 and NH3·H2O, followed by solvothermal treatment and crystallization.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
The photocatalytic activity was evaluated by measuring CO production under UV and simulated sunlight, and the diffusion coefficients were calculated using Knudsen diffusion equations.
