description | In this study, WO3 doped TiO2 powders were synthesized via sol-gel method
combined with a hydrothermal process. The effect of sintering temperature on
mesoporous structure and catalytic activities of these powders were
investigated. The physical analysis via X-ray diffraction indicates that
prepared samples are a mixture of anatase and rutile TiO2 phases. X-ray peak
analysis is used to evaluate the crystallite size and lattice strain by the
Williamson-Hall analysis. Considering all the reflections of the anatase
phase the lattice strain ranging from c = 9.505 to c = 9.548 is calculated,
suggesting that microstrain decreases when calcination temperature
increases. N2 adsorption-desorption analysis shows that the surface area and
pore volume decrease with increasing temperature and that WOx-TiO2 powders
primarily consist of mesopores. Sintering temperature induced a change in
textural properties causing a systematic shift towards larger mesopores.
Simultaneously, photoactivity in decolorization of methyl orange increases
with increasing calcination temperature up to 700°C, followed by
significant decrease with its further increase. [Project of the Serbian Ministry of Education, Science and Technological Development, Grant no. 172022, Grant no. 172026, Grant no. 172015,
