- 2017Titanate nanotubes and nanosheets as a mechanical reinforcement of water-soluble polyamic acid: Experimental and theoretical studies ; Titanate nanosheets (TiNS), titanate nanotubes (TiNT), and scrolled titanate nanosheets (STiNS) were used to synthesise polymer nanocomposites by solution processing. The hardness was found to increase by 90% on addition of 2% TiNS while the modulus (Er) increased by 103% compared to the pure polymer. Small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) measurements of composite films were used to study alignment of nanostructures within the polymer. The obtained data on mechanical properties of composites have been tested against theoretical values and it was established that both nanostructures alignment as well as their mechanical properties affect the hardness and modulus of the polymer composites. At a low content of TiNS, the reinforcement behaviour matched well with Halpin-Tsai theory which assumes the filler has unidirectional orientation. After addition of 2 wt% TiNT, the hardness and modulus of the polyamic acid salt composites increased by 91% and 165%, respectively, and were higher than theoretical predictions, indicating that both TiNT and STiNS, prepared by hydrothermal synthesis, may have higher mechanical properties than bulk TiO2. At a high filler loading (>2 wt%), the mechanical properties of composites do not fit established theories due to agglomeration of titanate nanostructures.citations

Photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue dye on reticulated vitreous carbon decorated with electrophoretically deposited TiO2 nanotubes
Abstract
<p>Titanate nanotubes (TiNT) were deposited over the surface of 100 pores per inch (ppi) reticulated vitreous carbon (RVC) by anodic electrophoresis at a cell voltage of 15 V, in an undivided cell, from an ethanol/water suspension containing TiNT coated with tetrabutylammonium hydroxide (TBAOH) surfactant. Scanning electron microscopy showed the open cell porous structure of TiNT/RVC coated by a uniform ca. 30 μm thick layer of TiNT. Calcination at 450 °C for 2 h in air improved the photocatalytic properties. The material was used as photocatalyst for the decolourisation of methylene blue (MB) dye. The 98% volumetric porosity of the RVC substrate provided good reactant access and large surface area for deposition of TiNT. The calcined TiNT/RVC substrate achieved a 91% dye degradation after 20 min, which was higher than uncoated, acid treated RVC and non-calcined TiNT/RVC substrate. The MB decolourisation improved at an increased thickness of 3D TiNT/RVC catalyst although the improvement was limited to 4 mm on 100 ppi RVC due to limited UV penetration.</p>
