Synthesis of TiO2-SiO2 powder photocatalyst via sol-gel method: effect of titanium precursor type on powder properties

TiO2 -SiO2 powder photocatalysts with varied SiO2 portion were prepared through sol-gel technique using two types of metal alkoxides: titanium tetraisopropoxide (TPT) and titanium diisopropoxide (PTP). Tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) as the silicon precursor was partially hydrolysed at room temper...
