The results showed that 10mol% of SiO2 additive was the most effective for decreasing contact angle of water. The SiO2 additive of less than 30mol% has a suppressive effect on the crystal growth of anatase in calcinations, resulting in a large surface area. Consequently, the super-hydrophilicity was improved.展开更多

The surface characteristics of the film, which include surface composition, microstructure and surface morphology, were studied by X-ray diffraction (XRD), atomic force microscopy (AFM) and X-ray photoelectron spectra (XPS), respectively. A scratching test was used to assess the interface adhesive strength between the film and substrate. The corrosion resistance of NiTi alloy coated with oxide films were studied by anodic polarization curves measurement in biological solution. Additionally, a preliminary study of the in vitro bioactivity of the films was conducted. The results indicated that TiO2 and TiO2-SiO2 (Ti/Si=4:1) films have higher electrochemical corrosion resistance and can be used as protective layers on NiTi alloy. In addition, TiO2-SiO2 composite films have better bioactivity than TiO2 film.展开更多

The effect of adding SiO 2 on the crystal structure, specific surface area, oxygen adsorption, and acidity of SO 2- 4/TiO 2 catalyst and its photocatalytic property for degradation of bromomethane was studied. The results showed that the specific surface area and amount of oxygen adsorption of catalyst were increased by addition of SiO 2, leading to the obvious increase on photocatalytic activity of SO 2- 4/TiO 2 SiO 2 catalysts and mineralization ratio of bromomethane. Comparing with SO 2- 4/TiO 2, the acidic strength and anti moisture ability of SO 2- 4/TiO 2 SiO 2 catalyst were decreased.展开更多

Water completely spread on TiO 2 surface within 3 s and its dynamic contact angles can be expressed by a power law θ d= k(t+a) -n with the n value 0.98. Less than 50%(molar fraction) SiO 2 addition can accelerate the dynamic water spreading rate on the TiO 2 SiO 2 films and the optimum molar fraction of SiO 2 amount corresponding to as annealed, air plasma, and UV irradiation treatment process is 15%, 10% and 20%, respectively.展开更多
