Abstract

A novel method for preparing highly photoactive nano-sized TiO₂ photocatalysts with anatase and brookite phases has been developed by hydrolysis of titanium tetraisopropoxide in pure water or a 1∶1 EtOH–H₂O solution under ultrasonic irradiation; the photocatalytic activity of TiO₂ particles prepared by this method exceeded that of Degussa P25. © 2001 Royal Society of Chemistry.
