Spray-hydrolytic synthesis of highly photoactive mesoporous anatase nanospher…

Abstract. Mesoporous titania nanospheres with high specific surface area and good photocatalytic activity were fabricated on a large scale by a simple spray-hydrolytic method at 90 oC. The as-prepared TiO2 spherical powders were characterized by X-ray diffraction, N2 adsorption–desorption measurements, field emission scanning electron microscope, transmission electron microscopy, UV–vis…
