Abstract

The present invention concerns the preparation of multifunctional forms of nanocrystalline titania (suspension, powders), by applying a new synthetic sol-gel method in a polymeric matrix. The innovation of the proposed synthetic procedure is based on the use of a polymer, cellulose and its derivatives, that may act as an effiicient matrix for the controlled hydrolysis-condensation of the titania alkoxides (butoxide or isopropoxide) and the subsequent formation of nanostructured materials, suspensions and powders of titania (titanium dioxide TiO2), Figure 1. Furthermore, the present invention presents the development of fractal nanocrystalline titanium dioxide films, Figure 2, that are prepared by combining the effective control of the hydrodynamic radius, the effective adjustment of the sol-gel viscosity and the application of a laboratory modified doctor-blade industrial method. The titania films are deposited on suitable substrates (i.e slides, conductive glass etc). These films present the crystalline structure of anatase and consist of nanoparticles with diameter ranging from 15 to 30 nm. They appear transparent, crack-free, without surface imperfections, with complex morphology and an extended real to geometric surface ratio. Finally the present invention describes the multi-functionality of the prepared films and their application for environmental and energy conversion processes, such as direct conversion of the solar energy to electricity, the photocatalytic degradation of the organic pollutants and the development of superhydrophilic surfaces. Actually, the practical implementation of the nanostructured titania films in dyesensitized solar cell modules indicate that the power conversion efficiency of solar light into electricity is higher than with any other sol-gel film known today, all over the world. From the other hand, the nanostructured titania exhibits photoinduced superhydrophile properties and at the same time, it operates as an immobilized photocatalyst, degrading multiple water (azo-dyes, phenols, pesticides) and air (aromatic hydrocarbons) pollutants.
