Abstract

A study was carried out on pyrene (Py) fluorescence quenching in the presence of N,N-dimethylaniline (DMA) on the surface of titania–silica colloids. Py fluorescence quenching is a function of the TiO2 content in the binary colloids. The coadsorption of DMA molecules is accompanied by an increase in the Py fluorescence intensity due to the competitive adsorption of amine on the surface. Calculation of the formal kinetics of Py fluorescence quenching indicates the existence of two groups of sites differing in adsorption activity within each group.
