Abstract: | In this work, electrospray technique combined sol-gel method was used to prepare porous TiO2 film. X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS), X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), and Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) analyses were conducted to examine the chemical composition, phase structure, and surface morphology of the sprayed TiO2 film. After calcined at 450 °C in air atmosphere for 2 h, mesoporous TiO2 nano-spheres clusters were formed on the surface of silicon wafer and the average size of nano-spheres was 250 nm. Ti presented as Ti4+ oxidation state in TiO2 film, and the TiO2 film exhibited the anatase phase. The sprayed porous TiO2 films were employed as photocatalyst to degrade organic phosphorus in water samples. Compared with the TiO2 film prepared by Sol-Gel spin-coating method, the porous TiO2 film deposited by electrospray combined sol-gel method showed higher photocatalytic activity. |
