Facile synthesis of TiO2(B) crystallites/nanopores structure: a highly efficient photocatalyst.
TiO(2)(B) was prepared by a facile green solvothermal method and further characterized by the powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), raman spectroscopy and nitrogen sorption analysis, and it has been found that the as-synthesized sample possesses a unique crystallites/nanopores structure and has a very large surface area (484 m(2) g(-1)). Surprisingly, it exhibits the very high photocatalytic activity and good stability for the decomposition of methyl orange (MO) compared to that of P25.
