Preparation and Characterization of (I2)n Sensitized Nanoporous TiO2 with Enhanced Photocatalytic Activity under Visible-Light Irradiation
A yellow/brown powder of (I2)n sensitized nanoporous TiO2 was obtained via an hydrolysis with TiCl4 and iodine hydrosol as raw material. I2 nanoparticles in the hydrosol were used as seeds to initiate the nucleation of a precursory TiO2 shell. The hybridized jumbles were further calcinated at diffe...
