Abstract
Abstract
The solvothermal approach is applied to produce doped titanium dioxide nanoparticles in the mesoporous form using Pluronic F127 as a delicate mold. The formulated samples are investigated successfully via x-ray diffraction, ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy, photoluminescence spectroscopy, scanning electron microscope, energy dispersive x-ray, transmission electron microscope, nitrogen adsorption-desorption analysis, and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy. Analysis of XRD, SEM, and TEM demonstrates the existence of a nanocrystalline size range of the particles. Methylene blue, congo red, and malachite green dyes are used to evaluate the photocatalytic competence of the samples. The results verified that the TiO2 including a peak quantity of copper (4%) shows maximum photocatalysis caused by the declined bandgap energy including effective charge separation of photoinduced charge carrier with a maximum surface area as revealed by ultraviolet-visible, photoluminescence spectroscopy & nitrogen adsorption-desorption analysis respectively.
