P-Incorporated TiO₂ Nanotubes for Methyl Orange Degradation

Abstract:

Highly ordered TiO₂ nanotubes were successfully prepared via a facile anodization method in ethylene glycol and water mixture electrolyte (99 vol% EG + 5 wt% NH₄F). The as-anodized TiO₂ nanotubes were crystallized by annealing at 400 °C for 4 hours in argon atmosphere. A series of phosphorus incorporation with different phosphorus content have been prepared by soaking TiO₂ nanotubes samples in H₃PO₄. The photocatalytic activity of TiO₂ nanotubes and P-incorporated TiO₂ nanotubes were evaluated by the photodegradation of methyl orange. It was found that the photocatalytic activity of P-incorporated TiO₂ nanotubes was 34% higher than TiO₂ nanotubes.
