Abstract

The invention provides water-soluble nano-titania with an adjustable particle size. A crystal structure of water-soluble nano-titania is an anatase type, the particle size range is 1nm-100m. Water-soluble nano-titania is prepared by the steps of adding a titanium precursor into a heated and fused polymer, stirring to obtain a sticky mixture, adding concentrated hydrochloric acid, continuing to stir for 20-60 minutes, adding titanium tetrachloride, continuing to stir for 20-40 minutes, finally, transferring the product into a high-pressure reaction kettle, and reacting at 140-180 DEG C for 4-8 hours, washing the product with absolute ethanol, carrying out centrifuging, and drying, so as to obtain water-soluble nano-titania with a surface grafted with the polymer. By adjusting the addition amount of water-soluble nano-titania, the particle size of water-soluble nano-titania can be adjusted and controlled, a preparation method of water-soluble nano-titania is simple and feasible, the preparation process is easy to control, and the problem that nano-titania is very easy to be polymerized and coagulated in a water environment in the prior art can be effectively solved; water-soluble nano-titania has potential market application prospects in the field of printing and dyeing wastewater treatment.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the research field of modification of titanium dioxide, in particular to a water-soluble nano-sized titanium dioxide with uniform crystal form, good photocatalytic performance and uniform and stable existence in water environment with adjustable particle size. Background technique [0002] Titanium dioxide is a non-toxic, cheap and stable semiconductor photocatalytic material, which has broad application prospects in solar cells, hydrogen production by photolysis of water, and environmental pollutant treatment. Titanium dioxide has three crystal forms in nature: rutile type, anatase type and brookite type. It is generally believed that the photocatalytic performance of anatase type titanium dioxide is the best. However, nano-titanium dioxide with controllable particle size, uniform and stable existence in water, and good photocatalytic performance has been rarely reported. The reason is mainly that nano-titanium dioxide, which...
