Abstract

Titanium dioxide nanorods have been prepared by sol-gel templatemethod. The structural and surface morphology of the TiO2 nanorods wasinvestigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and atomic force microscopy(AFM), it was found that the nanorods produced were anatase TiO2 phase.The photocatalytic activity of the TiO2 nanorods was evaluated by thephoto degradation of methyl orange (MO). The relatively higherdegradation efficiency for MO (D%=78.2) was obtained after 6h of exposedto UV irradiation.

Highlights

  • Titanium dioxide (TiO2) onedimensional (1D) nanostructured materials have attracted considerable attention because of their applications in various fields such as in dye-sensitized, solar cells, photo catalysis, photo-electrochemical applications, gas sensors and water splitting [1,2]

  • The photocatalytic activity of the TiO2 nanorods was evaluated by the photo degradation of methyl orange (MO)

  • TiO2 nanorods are synthesized by direct sol gel filling and heating template method
