摘要
Chromium-titania photocatalysts were prepared at different contents in chromium oxide (0.1-5.0 wt.%) by gelling titanium alkoxide and chromium nitrate. Nanostructured titania with crystallite sizes between 22 and 40nm and high specific surface areas (68-113m(2)/g) were obtained in solids annealed at 500 degrees C. The determination of the band gap energy showed a shift to the visible region in samples containing high amounts of chromium oxide (3.8-1.8 eV). XPS spectroscopy evidenced the presence of Cr(III) and Cr(VI) in the annealed semiconductors. The photocatalyst with low doping content (0.1 wt.% Cr) was observed to provide effective Cr-Ti interaction and allow the maximum photoactivity. (C) 2011 Elsevier B. V. All rights reserved.
