The Mystery of Titanium Dioxide Cracked
July 10, 2013 | 2 Comments
Researchers at University College London (UCL) have broken through to understanding of the properties of titanium dioxide known as ‘titania’ that is hoped to be used in photoelectrochemical cells known as PECs. The basis of the research clears up a decades old misunderstanding that’s clouded the knowledge of how mixed phase titania catalysts operate. Mixed […]
