A hierarchical Ag2O-nanoparticle/TiO2-nanotube composite derived from natural cellulose substance with enhanced photocatalytic performance
A series of hierarchical Ag 2 O-nanoparticle/TiO 2 -nanotube heterostructured nanocomposites with varied Ag 2 O contents were fabricated by employing natural cellulose substance as the template. The nanocomposites possessed fine three-dimensional porous network structures, which were composed of TiO...

O nanoparticles. It was demonstrated that the improved photocatalytic performances of the nanocomposites were attributed to the hierarchical nanotubular structures that inherited from the natural cellulose substances and the effective heterostructure between the titania and silver oxide phases derived from the unique structure. Hence, the close relationship between the cellulose derived structures and the photocatalytic performances of the nanocomposites were demonstrated. The related possible photocatalytic mechanism was revealed that the separation and transfer of the photogenerated electron–hole pairs was accelerated, and the superoxide radicals and reactive holes played a main role in the photocatalytic processes.
