The invention provides a preparation method and application of modified
titanium dioxide nanoparticles. The preparation method comprises the following steps: step 1, preparing a precursor solution of WO3; step 2, adding
anatase TiO2 nano-
microsphere powder into the precursor solution of WO3 in the step 1, adding a dispersing agent and
oxalic acid dihydrate, and then sequentially carrying out
ultrasonic dispersion and mechanical stirring to obtain a turbid
mixed solution; 3, carrying out a
hydrothermal reaction on the
mixed solution obtained in the step 2, carrying out
centrifugal separation to obtain a
solid product, washing the
solid product with deionized water and
ethanol for three times in sequence, and
drying the
solid product; and 4, calcining the
solid product obtained after
drying in the step 4 for 2-3 hours, cooling, and
grinding to obtain the TiO2 / WO3 nano composite particles. According to the TiO2 / WO3 nano composite particle obtained by the invention, the
interface bonding of TiO2 and WO3 is enhanced, the separation efficiency of
photon-generated carriers under
light irradiation is favorably improved, the TiO2 / WO3 nano composite particle has good light absorption performance, the light
absorption band edge is expanded to 476 nm, the
absorbance is remarkably improved, and the TiO2 / WO3 nano composite particle can be used for preparing a photo-generated
cathode anticorrosive
coating from a photo-
anode filler.
