(Abstract)
Titanium dioxide was coated onto the pore wall surface of anodic alumina membranes from solution of titanyl(IV)acetylacetonate. After calcinations at various temperatures, the XRD analysis of each specimen indicated the anatase phase of titanium dioxide. The TiO2 coated anodic alumina membranes were evaluated for the photocatalytic activity in the decomposition of salicylic acid. The membrane which coated by 40 wt% solution of titanyl (IV)acetylacetonate and calcined at 500 C showed the highest photocatalytic activity.
