聚乙二醇对TiO2薄膜光致亲水性的促进作用
Promoted Effect of Polyethylene Glycol on the Photo-Induced Hydrophilicity of TiO2 Films
摘要
Abstract
To investigate the photo-induced hydrophilicity of TiO2 films and its durability, a series of TiO2 films containing polyethylene glycol (PEG) 2000 with different contents are prepared. The photo-induced hydrophilicity of the films is investigated by recording the water-droplet contact angle on the films' surface under UV irradiation, and the hydrophilicity durability is monitored under dark storage conditions. The photo-induced hydrophilicity of TiO2 films and its hydrophilicity durability are enhanced by introducing 2.0% (w) of PEG into the TiO2 sol. From Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectra and ultraviolet-visible diffuse reflection spectra (UV-Vis DRS), we infer that PEG acts as an electron donor to scavenge the photo-generated holes in TiO2 and promotes the formation of Ti3+ sites, which are induced by the TV4+ sites accepting the photo-generated electrons of TiO2. This promotes the formation of hydrophilic sites (the surface hydroxyl species). Compared with the pure TiO2 film, the Ti3+ sites in the Ti O2/PEG films are more stable, which prolongs the hydrophilicity of TiO2 films under dark conditions. This study is significant for the application of TiO2 as a self-cleaning material, and is also a facile approach to investigate the transient behaviors of TiO2 under UV irradiation.关键词
