Titanium dioxide nanomaterials have a variety of unique physical and chemical properties, which make them widely used in many fields.
First of all, Titanium dioxide nanomaterials have high chemical stability and thermal stability. According to multiple evidences, nano titanium dioxide shows excellent stability in chemical properties and is insoluble in water, organic acids and weak inorganic acids. In addition, it is widely used in many fields, such as anti-ultraviolet materials, textiles, photocatalytic catalysts, self-cleaning glass, etc., which further proves its chemical stability and safety. Nano titanium dioxide is widely used in solar cells and optoelectronic devices due to its good chemical stability and strong redox properties. In addition, nano titanium dioxide also has good thermal stability, which enables it to maintain its chemical properties unchanged even in high temperature environments. Overall, the chemical stability of titanium dioxide nanomaterials has been widely recognized and has demonstrated its advantages in many application fields. This makes them widely used in fields such as anti-ultraviolet materials, textiles, self-cleaning glass, sunscreens, coatings, inks and food packaging materials. In addition, Titanium dioxide nanomaterials also exhibit superhydrophilicity and non-migration, which further enhance their application potential in self-cleaning surfaces and anti-fogging functions.
The photocatalytic activity of Titanium dioxide nanomaterials is also one of its important characteristics. By absorbing ultraviolet light energy, Titanium dioxide nanomaterials can effectively carry out photocatalytic reactions, thus having antibacterial and bactericidal capabilities. This characteristic makes Titanium dioxide nanomaterials have significant application prospects in air purification, water treatment and disinfection. Titanium dioxide nanomaterials are a semiconductor material with good photocatalytic activity, chemical stability and environmental friendliness, so they have broad application prospects in photocatalytic degradation of pollutants, air purification, water treatment and other fields. The photocatalytic activity of Titanium dioxide nanomaterials is affected by many factors, including crystal structure, particle size, and surface morphology and doping elements. Anatase Titanium dioxide is generally considered to have the highest photocatalytic activity due to its special crystal structure, followed by rutile. In addition, the nanosize effect makes Titanium dioxide show stronger photocatalytic activity at small sizes; because small-sized particles have a larger specific surface area and more surface active sites. In order to improve the photocatalytic performance of Titanium dioxide, researchers have tried to enhance its photocatalytic activity by forming defects by doping elements such as sulfur, carbon, and nitrogen. For example, Titanium dioxide doped with carbon and sulfur exhibits excellent photocatalytic performance in the visible light range, can effectively oxidize harmful organic matter and prolong the light absorption region. In addition, by combining with other semiconductors or precious metals, such as depositing a thin silver shell on Titanium dioxide nanoparticles, plasma absorption can be achieved, thereby controlling the position of the absorption peak and further enhancing the photocatalytic effect. The morphology of nano-Titanium dioxide also has a significant effect on its photocatalytic performance. For example, nanowires exhibit strong photocatalytic performance due to their large specific surface area and surface energy, as well as high charge carrier transport efficiency. The nanowire structure can delay the recombination rate of photogenerated electrons and photogenerated holes, thereby enhancing the photocatalytic effect.
In the field of optoelectronics, Titanium dioxide nanomaterials are widely used in optoelectronic devices such as memory, sensors, and photodiodes due to their wide bandgap semiconductor properties. Due to the quantum limiting effect and high specific surface area, Titanium dioxide nanomaterials exhibit size dependence and novel optoelectronic properties in these applications.
In addition, Titanium dioxide nanomaterials also have dielectric effects and photoelectric conversion capabilities, which make them also have important applications in sensors, dielectric materials, and solar cells. For example, Titanium dioxide nanotube arrays have shown broad application prospects in photoelectric conversion and photocatalytic water splitting to produce hydrogen due to their highly ordered nanostructures.
Titanium dioxide nanomaterials have shown wide application potential in many fields due to their high chemical stability, photocatalytic activity, superhydrophilicity, non-migration, and excellent photoelectric properties. However, due to the influence of the nanosize effect, Titanium dioxide nanomaterials are prone to agglomeration in polymer matrices, which needs to be solved through modification strategies.
