Photocatalytic Characteristics of Titania Thin Film Prepared by Micro Arc Oxidation

Article Preview

Abstract:

Anodic titania film was synthesized by electrochemical micro plasma oxidation method in H2SO4/NH4NO3 electrolyte, and electrochemical anodizing was carried out at various electrolyte temperatures. The photocatalytic properties and surface characteristics of anodic titania film were investigated. For anodic titania film synthesized at higher electrolyte temperature, the specific surface area of anodic film and the anatase crystalline phase gradually increased. The anodic titania film fabricated in high temperature electrolyte showed not only a slight red shift related to increasing the anatase phase ratio but also a high efficiency of dye degradation.
