Problems solved by technology

However, the bandgap of titanium dioxide is relatively wide, and it only responds in the ultraviolet band. At the same time, photogenerated electrons and holes are prone to recombination, which limits its application in the fields of photolysis of water for hydrogen production, dye-sensitized solar cells, etc.

Abstract

The invention discloses a nanorod-constructed titanium dioxide hollow sphere with ultra-high stability, and excellent charge and discharge capacity and rate capability, and a preparation method thereof. The method is as below: employing a solvent thermal method by dissolving a titanium source in isopropanol and stirring uniformly to obtain a mixed solution; and transferring the above solution to a reactor with a teflon lining, placing the reactor in an oven at 100-220 DEG C, insulating for 1.5-48 h, cooling to room temperature, washing the product by ethanol, centrifuging, and drying to obtain the nanorod-constructed titanium dioxide hollow sphere. The invention employs the solvent thermal method to realize one step method for synthesis of the nanorod-constructed titanium dioxide hollow sphere. The titanium dioxide hollow sphere can be applied to lithium ion battery cathode material. At the same time, the special nanorod grade hollow structure as a photocatalyst can regulate the of absorption and usage of light, and improve photocatalytic activity; and the nanorod-constructed titanium dioxide hollow sphere has broad application prospects in the fields of photocatalysis, photocatalytic water splitting and dye-sensitized solar cell.

Description
