title: Synthesis of peroxo-titanium decorated H-titanate-nanotube-based hierarchical microspheres with enhanced visible-light photocatalytic activity in degradation of Rhodamine B.
abstract: Peroxo-titanium decorated H-titanate-nanotube-based hierarchical microspheres (PTHM) with a large surface area (368 m(2) g(-1)) and mesoporous structure were prepared by an alkaline hydrothermal method in the presence of H2O2 followed by acid wash, and they exhibited improved activity in degradation of Rhodamine B under visible light irradiation.
