Fabrication of a TiO2 nanoparticles impregnated titanium mesh filter and its application for environmental purification

Abstract

A novel photocatalytic filter, titanium-mesh sheet modified with TiO2 (TMiP), was fabricated and applied for environmental purification. The high flexibility of TMiP allows for an easy to design and fabricate photocatalytic reactor. Moreover, TMiP provides an excellent air or water pass-through while maintaining a high level of surface contact with UV irradiation.
