Hybrid CuxO/TiO2 Nanocomposites As Risk-Reduction Materials in Indoor Environments
Abstract
Photocatalytic TiO(2) powders impart ultraviolet light-induced self-cleaning and antibacterial functions when coated on outdoor building materials. For indoor applications, however, TiO(2) must be modified for visible-light and dark sensitivity. Here we report that the grafting of nanometer-sized Cu(x)O clusters onto TiO(2) generates an excellent risk-reduction material in indoor environments. X-ray absorption near-edge structure using synchrotron radiation and high-resolution transmission electron microscopic analyses revealed that Cu(x)O clusters were composed of Cu(I) and Cu(II) valence states. The Cu(II) species in the Cu(x)O clusters endow TiO(2) with efficient visible-light photooxidation of volatile organic compounds, whereas the Cu(I) species impart antimicrobial properties under dark conditions. By controlling the balance between Cu(I) and Cu(II) in Cu(x)O, efficient decomposition and antipathogenic activity were achieved in the hybrid Cu(x)O/TiO(2) nanocomposites.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
