Abstract

Porous siliceous materials such as zeolite and mesoporous silica are often used as the support of TiO2 photocatalyst. Control of the surface properties, shapes and structures on the nanoscale can expand their inherent properties for design of more efficient reaction systems and improved photocatalytic performance with additional functions. This review mainly describes our recent investigations on the design of TiO2-loaded porous siliceous materials for application to photocatalytic environmental purification via efficient adsorption and condensation of target organic molecules and decomposition in water and air. The compositions, surface properties, pore structures and other characteristics realized by various modification techniques are briefly summarized.
