Abstract

TiO2/bucky paper composites were prepared by loading TiO2 on a bucky paper substrate by a simple hydrothermal method using tetrabutyl titanate (TBOT) as the titanium source and anhydrous ethanol as the solvent. MO served as the target degradation object. Various TiO2/bucky papers were successfully synthesized by adjusting the reaction temperature and precursor concentration. Then, they were characterized using SEM, XRD, XPS, and UV-vis techniques. The TiO2/bucky paper was prepared at a temperature of 160°C. A precursor addition of 1.0 ml had the highest photocatalytic degradation efficiency of 95.36 % within 90 min, and the photocatalytic degradation efficiency was still greater than 86 % after four cycles.
