Creator:: Turnquist, Macklin C.
Abstract:: Nanoparticles (NPs) are generally defined as particles <100 nanometers (nm) in size in one dimension. Despite increasing industrial usage of TiO2 NPs in sunscreens, cosmetics, and water remediation little is known of their environmental behavior. The primary goal of this research was to develop a rapid method for determining the...

Full Text:: matter (NOM) and ions found in the water coating the surface of NPs. Key Words: titanium dioxide

Creator:: Yen, Wei-Liang
Abstract:: The primary goal of this thesis is to synthesize titanium dioxide nanorods using a continuous flow microreactor. Titania powder, one of the most important particulate materials is used for many purposes owing to its excellent optical properties of a high refractive index leading to high hiding power and whiteness of...

Creator:: Campbell, Travis J.
Abstract:: Microtechnology was used to study the chemical reduction of dissolved carbon dioxide into useful products. A novel TiO₂ photocatalyst was used to activate the reaction under ultraviolet irradiation. CO₂ was dissolved in aqueous and 50% BMIM-BF₄ (ionic liquid) solutions. The introduction of an ionic liquid increased the solubility of CO₂...

Full Text:: that is commonly used due to its abundance in nature is titanium dioxide (TiO2). In fact, TiO2 has

Creator:: Jeffryes, Clayton S.
Abstract:: There is significant interest in titanium oxide and germanium-silicon oxide nanocomposites for optoelectronic, photocatalytic, and solar cell applications. The ability of the marine diatom Pinnularia sp. to uptake soluble metal oxides from cell culture medium, and incorporate them into the micro- and nano-structure of their amorphous silica cell walls, called...
