Problems solved by technology

It can be seen that this method has the following disadvantages: ① the process is complicated, ② the prepared titanium dioxide nanotubes exist in the form of powder, and cannot be used as electrodes
The process has the following problems: ① Since the prepared titania nanotube electrode has not been truly integrated, the stability is poor, and the titania nanotube is easy to peel off or crack from the substrate, so it is not suitable for use as an electrode in a photoelectrocatalytic reaction; ②The arrangement of titanium dioxide nanotubes on the electrode is disordered and disordered, and the activity is low; ③The process is complex
