A layered titanate, KTiO, is intercalated with various -alkylamines through ion-exchange reaction in aqueous medium. On heating, the intercalated amine is partially deintercalated, yielding nitrogen-doped amine-intercalated titanates. The modified titanates are studied as catalysts in methylene blue degradation under UV irradiation. Heat-treated long-chain amine titanates exhibit better photocatalytic activity in comparison to short chain amine titanates. The improved catalytic activity could be attributed to two factors: (i) increased surface access as the titanate layers are well separated, pillared by the alkylamine chains and (ii) nitrogen doping.
一种层状钛酸盐KTiO,通过在水介质中的离子交换反应与各种烷基胺进行插层。加热时,插层的胺会部分脱插层,生成氮掺杂的胺插层钛酸盐。对改性钛酸盐作为紫外光照射下亚甲基蓝降解催化剂进行了研究。与短链胺钛酸盐相比,热处理的长链胺钛酸盐表现出更好的光催化活性。催化活性的提高可归因于两个因素:(i) 由于钛酸盐层被烷基胺链很好地隔开并支撑,表面可及性增加;(ii) 氮掺杂。
