Abstract

The invention provides a preparation process of a dendritic titanium dioxide nanotube array electrode, which comprises: firstly, pre-preparing a titanium dioxide nanotube array by using an anodizing method and by using pure titanium foil as an anode and mixed solution of ammonium fluoride, lactic acid and dimethyl sulphoxide as electrolyte; secondly, growing nanorods with dendritic titanium dioxide on the pre-prepared titanium dioxide nanotubes serving as a host skeleton by using a low-temperature liquid-phase method and by using aqueous solution of hydrochloric acid and TTIP as growing solution, and thus obtaining the required dendritic titanium dioxide nanotube array; and finally, using the dendritic titanium dioxide nanotube array as a material to assemble the working electrodes of dye-sensitized solar cells, photoelectrochemical cells, photocatalysis devices and the like. The dendritic titanium dioxide nanotube array can improve the conversion efficiency of the cells and the efficiency of the photocatalytic pollutant degradation considerably; and the preparation process is low in cost, simple in process and easy in production.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of preparation of low-dimensional oxide nanostructure materials and low-temperature liquid-phase method electrode materials, and specifically relates to a method of firstly preparing titanium dioxide nanotube arrays (TNTs) by anodic oxidation as a host skeleton, and then growing them by low-temperature liquid-phase method Dendritic titanium dioxide nanorods (TBT) are produced to obtain dendritic titanium dioxide nanotube arrays (TBNT), and then assembled into a preparation process for working electrodes of dye-sensitized cells, photoelectrochemical cells, and photocatalysts. Background technique [0002] In 1999, Zwilling et al reported the preparation of titanium dioxide (TiO 2 ) nanotube array (reference: Zwilling V. et al. Anodic Oxidation of Titanium and TA6V Alloy in Chromic Media. An Electrochemical Approach [J]. Electrochemical Acta, 1999, 45(6): 921-929). Since then, electrochemical self-organized l...
