T1 - Microwave-assisted synthesis of carbon nanotube-TiO2 nanocomposites in ionic liquid for the photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue N2 - A simple and efficient method of preparing composites of carbon nanotubes and titania (CNT-TiO2) is reported via a microwave-assisted synthesis in an ionic liquid, [bmim][BF4]. CNT-TiO2 nanocomposites were formed by the thermal decomposition of titanium (IV) isopropoxide (Ti(OPri)4) in the presence of CNTs under microwave irradiation. The obtained product was characterized by BET surface area, XRD, SEM, and TEM. TiO2 particles with average size of 9 nm were as anatase. The surface area of the Composites increased with an increase of CNT content. Moreover, the catalytic efficiency of the composite was investigated through the photoelectrodegradation of methylene blue.
