日本国立材料科学研究所功能玻璃小组开发了一种能高效率分解化学物质的TiO_2光催化剂,这种催化剂的分解效率要比目前工业上用的催化剂高一个数量级以上。这种TiO_2光催化剂所以具有高分解效率是因为采用了很薄的薄膜形成技术,从而提高了催化剂单位面积的容量。该研究所实验室希望新催化剂能用于净化空气设施和有关净化环境功能的窗用材料等领域。 Japan’s National Institute of Materials Science Functional Glass Group has developed a kind of highly efficient decomposition of chemical substances TiO 2 photocatalyst, the decomposition rate of this catalyst than the current industrial use of the catalyst more than an order of magnitude. The high decomposition efficiency of this TiO 2 photocatalyst is due to the use of a very thin film formation technique, thereby increasing the capacity per unit area of ​​the catalyst. The Institute’s laboratories hope that the new catalyst can be used in areas such as air purification and window materials that purify the environment.
