General description

Titanium(IV) oxide is a chemically inert and non-toxic semiconductormaterial widely used in the field of photovoltaics and environmentalremediation. Thephotocatalytic activity of anatase is superior tothat of other polymorphs of titanium oxide.

Application

Titanium(IV) oxide can be used as a precursor:
  • To synthesize TiO2/ZnO- calcium alginate photocatalyst for removal of copper from aqueous solutions.
  • To fabricate implantable composite bioelectrode for biosensing applications.
It can also be used as a nanoparticle growth initiator for the anodic modification of microbial fuel cells(MFC) to enhance their performance.

Features and Benefits

  • Higher electron mobility
  • Low dielectric constant
  • Lower ability to adsorb oxygen
  • Higher Fermi level
  • High degree of hydroxylation
  • Superior biocompatibility
  • Corrosion resistance

Photoacoustic imaging (PAI) standardisation demands a stable, highly reproducible physical phantom to enable routine quality control and robust performance evaluation. To address this need, we have optimised a low-cost copolymer-in-oil tissue-mimickingmaterial formulation. The base material consists of mineral oil, copolymer

Controlling autonomous propulsion of microswimmers is essential for targeted drug delivery and applications of micro/nanomachines in environmental remediation and beyond. Herein, we report two-dimensional (2D) carbon nitride-based Janus particles as highly efficient, light-driven microswimmers in aqueous media. Due to the
