Preparation of TiO₂ Nano-Film by Anodic Oxidation Method and its Hydrophobic Modification

Abstract:

TiO₂ nanofilms with different morphology were prepared by anodic oxidation method by changing the electrolyte concentration, anodization voltage, anodization time and anode-cathode distance. The surface of the nanofilm was modified by a kind of solution which consists of lauric acid and hexadecane. And this article find a proper electrolytic time, a medium voltage, a proper anode-cathode distance and a lower electrolyte concentration are beneficial to the hydrophobicity of the nanofilm.
