Harnessing 1D TiO2 nanostructures: insights into synthesis, properties and photocatalytic applications for pollution control

Abstract

This review explores the development of one dimensional TiO2 nanostructures, which have garnered significant attention due to their exceptional structural and functional properties. Additionally, it provides valuable insights into the synthesis of one dimensional TiO2 nanostructures with controlled size, morphology, composition, and properties, as well as their photocatalytic applications for pollution control, compared to zero dimensional and two dimensional structures. Furthermore, the review places particular emphasis on their role in environmental remediation, especially in the photocatalytic degradation of both air and aqueous pollutants. It highlights the transformative potential of these nanomaterials in addressing pressing environmental challenges and advancing future technologies.
