Tomá Solný BRNO UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGY VYSOKÉ UENÍ TECHNICKÉ V BRN FACULTY OF CHEMISTRY FAKULTA CHEMICKÁ INSTITUTE OF MATERIALS SCIENCE ÚSTAV CHEMIE MATERIÁL SYNTHESIS AND PHOTOCATALYTIC APPLICATIONS OF TITANIUM DIOXIDE PÍPRAVA A APLIKACE FOTOKATALYTICKY AKTIVNÍHO OXIDU TITANIITÉHO DOCTORAL THESIS DIZERTANÍ PRÁCE AUTHOR Ing. Tomá Solný AUTOR PRÁCE SUPERVISOR doc. Ing. Petr Ptáek, Ph.D. KOLITEL BRNO 2016 ABSTRACT Hydrolysis conditions for different Ti-alkoxides were examined considering the impact of water to alkoxide ratio and temperature. The prepared hydrolysates and sintered TiO2 nanoparticles were examined with XRD, DTA – TGA, SEM – EDS, BET and PCCS analysis in order to identify the impact of hydrolysis on properties of prepared anatase particles. Magnetite nanoparticles were synthetized by easy one step precipitation method from Mohr´s salt solution and their crystallinity, size and surface properties were examined investigating the influence of temperature and coating by polycarboxylate ether superplasticizer. For immobilization of TiO2 on surfaces of magnetite combined method using the selected nanoparticles of TiO2 and Ti-alkoxides hydrolysis is performed in order to obtain photocatalytically active core–shell powder catalysator with enhanced adsorptive properties. Also the investigation on the applications of TiO2 on surfaces of Mn-Zn ferrite is done with studying the surface treatment by CVD deposition of C and Au layer. Photocatalytic activity of selected prepared photocatalysators is evaluated upon decomposition of methylene blue and isopropanolic and ethanolic vapors for Mn-Zn ferrite in experimental chemical reactor with magnetically holded powdered photocatalysator beds. KEYWORDS: Titanium oxide, anatase, photocatalytic activity, core-shell powder photocatalysator, magnetite, Mn-Zn ferrite, Ti-alkoxides, hydrolysis, sol-gel, nanoparticles. -

Academic Editors: Smagul Karazhanov, Ana Cremades and Cuong Ton-That Received: 31 October 2019; Accepted: 25 November 2019; Published: 27 November 2019 Abstract: TiO2 thin films with different titanium isopropoxide (TTIP):acetylacetone (AcacH) molar ratios in solution were prepared by the chemical spray pyrolysis method. The TTIP:AcacH molar ratio in spray solution varied from 1:3 to 1:20. TiO2 films were deposited onto the glass substrates at 350 ◦C and heat-treated at 500 ◦C. The morphology, structure, surface chemical composition, and photocatalytic activity of the obtained TiO2 films were investigated. TiO2 films showed a transparency of ca 80% in the visible spectral region and a band gap of ca 3.4 eV irrespective of the TTIP:AcacH molar ratio in the spray solution. -

The Development and Improvement of Instructions
AMPHIPHILIC PHASE-TRANSFORMING CATALYSTS FOR TRANSESTERIFICATION OF TRIGLYCERIDES A Dissertation by GAYAN IVANTHA NAWARATNA Submitted to the Office of Graduate Studies of Texas A&M University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Approved by: Chair of Committee, Sandun Fernando Committee Members, Ronald Lacey Cady Engler Hae-Kwon Jeong Head of Department, Steve Searcy May 2013 Major Subject: Biological & Agricultural Engineering Copyright 2013 Gayan Ivantha Nawaratna ABSTRACT Heterogeneous catalytic reactions that involve immiscible liquid-phase reactants are challenging to conduct due to limitations associated with mass transport. Nevertheless, there are numerous reactions such as esterification, transesterification, etherification, and hydrolysis where two immiscible liquid reactants (such as polar and non-polar liquids) need to be brought into contact with a catalyst. With the intention of alleviating mass transport issues associated with such systems but affording the ability to separate the catalyst once the reaction is complete, the overall goal of this study is geared toward developing a catalyst that has emulsification properties as well as the ability to phase- transfer (from liquid-phase to solid-phase) while the reaction is ongoing and evaluating the effectiveness of such a catalytic process in a practical reaction. To elucidate this concept, the transesterification reaction was selected. Metal-alkoxides that possess acidic and basic properties (to catalyze the reaction), amphiphilic properties (to stabilize the alcohol/oil emulsion) and that can undergo condensation polymerization when heated (to separate as a solid subsequent to the completion of the reaction) were used to test the concept. Studies included elucidating the effect of metal sites and alkoxide sites and their concentration effects on transesterification reaction, effect of various metal alkoxide groups on the phase stability of the reactant system, and kinetic effects of the reaction ii system. -
