AB  - Developing highly efficient semiconductor metal oxide (SMOX) sensors capable of accurate and fast responses to environmental humidity is still a challenging task. In addition to a not so pronounced sensitivity to relative humidity change, most of the SMOXs cannot meet the criteria of real-time humidity sensing due to their long response/recovery time. The way to tackle this problem is to control adsorption/desorption processes, i.e., water-vapor molecular dynamics, over the sensor’s active layer through the powder and pore morphology design. With this in mind, a KIT-5-mediated synthesis was used to achieve mesoporous tin (IV) oxide replica (SnO2-R) with controlled pore size and ordering through template inversion and compared with a sol-gel synthesized powder (SnO2-SG). Unlike SnO2-SG, SnO2-R possessed a high specific surface area and quite an open pore structure, similar to the KIT-5, as observed by TEM, BET and SWAXS analyses. According to TEM, SnO2-R consisted of fine-grained globular particles and some percent of exaggerated, grown twinned crystals. The distinctive morphology of the SnO2-R-based sensor, with its specific pore structure and an increased number of oxygen-related defects associated with the powder preparation process and detected at the sensor surface by XPS analysis, contributed to excellent humidity sensing performances at room temperature, comprised of a low hysteresis error (3.7%), sensitivity of 406.8 kΩ/RH% and swift response/recovery speed (4 s/6 s).

AB  - Titanium dioxide exists in three different crystalline forms: anatase, rutile, and brookite.
It is well known that on heating, anatase and brookite can be easily transformed to rutile
which is considered as the most stable phase [1]. The aim of this study was to investigate
the influence of different dopants on anatase-rutile phase transition. Doped TiO2 samples
(TiO2-M, M = V, Mn, and Cu) containing 5 at% of the dopant were prepared by mixing
anatase and appropriate oxide (V2O5, MnO2, and CuO) in agate mortar for 30 min. In
order to determine the heat treatment conditions, TG/DTA analysis of the samples was
performed. Finally, mixed powders as well as the pure anatase phase (TiO2) were heat
treated at 700 °C for 3 h. XRD analysis was performed to estimate the phase composition,
unit cell parameters, and crystallite sizes. Rutile was formed in all samples: 2.8 wt% in
TiO2, 25.5 wt% in TiO2-Mn, 75.8 wt% in TiO2-V, and 95.2 wt% in TiO2-Cu. In TiO2-
Mn, TiO2-V, and TiO2, anatase was present beside rutile, while in the case of TiO2-Cu
4.8 wt% of the unreacted CuO was found. Obtained results revealed that all the dopants
accelerated anatase-rutile phase transition in the following order: Cu2+ > V5+ > Mn4+. It
is well known that defects are the driving force for the anatase-rutile phase transition and
since Ti4+ and Mn4+ are isovalent, no new defects were formed by incorporating Mn4+
ions into TiO2 lattice. This resulted in the least amount of rutile in TiO2-Mn comparing
to TiO2-V and TiO2-Cu where new defects were probably formed. As no initial oxides
were found in TiO2-Mn and TiO2-V, it can be concluded that Mn4+ and V5+ ions were
incorporated into the anatase lattice. On the other hand, in the case of TiO2-Cu, even 4.8
wt% of initial CuO was found. The detected residue of CuO can be explained by the fact
that the ionic radius of Cu2+ for an octahedral environment (0.870 Å) is much larger than
that of Ti4+ (0.745 Å), unlike those for Mn4+ (0.670 Å) and V5+ (0.680 Å). Although
almost all introduced quantity of CuO, i.e. 96 %, was found in TiO2-Cu, a small amount
was surely necessary to cause the anatase-rutile phase transition. According to calculated
crystallite sizes which were in the range of 55 – 90 nm, nanocrystalline samples were
prepared.

accelerated anatase-rutile phase transition in the following order: Cu2+ > V5+ > Mn4+. It
is well known that defects are the driving force for the anatase-rutile phase transition and
since Ti4+ and Mn4+ are isovalent, no new defects were formed by incorporating Mn4+
ions into TiO2 lattice. This resulted in the least amount of rutile in TiO2-Mn comparing
to TiO2-V and TiO2-Cu where new defects were probably formed. As no initial oxides
were found in TiO2-Mn and TiO2-V, it can be concluded that Mn4+ and V5+ ions were
incorporated into the anatase lattice. On the other hand, in the case of TiO2-Cu, even 4.8
wt% of initial CuO was found. The detected residue of CuO can be explained by the fact
that the ionic radius of Cu2+ for an octahedral environment (0.870 Å) is much larger than
that of Ti4+ (0.745 Å), unlike those for Mn4+ (0.670 Å) and V5+ (0.680 Å). Although
almost all introduced quantity of CuO, i.e. 96 %, was found in TiO2-Cu, a small amount
was surely necessary to cause the anatase-rutile phase transition. According to calculated
crystallite sizes which were in the range of 55 – 90 nm, nanocrystalline samples were
prepared.

AB  - It is well known that titanium dioxide is usually used as a photocatalyst due to its
nontoxicity, low cost, and stability. Conductive polymer, polypyrrole (PPy) is also
appropriate for photocatalytic application being stable and easy to synthesize. The aim of
this study was to obtain TiO2/PPy composites reaching higher photocatalytic efficiency
compared to pure TiO2. Therefore, TiO2 was synthesized by the hydrothermal route,
while PPy was obtained by the chemical oxidative polymerization method. TiO2/x% PPy
nanocomposites (x = 0, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 3, 5 wt.%) were prepared by hand-mixing of powders
in agate mortar for 30 min in order to find the optimal PPy content. Obtained materials
were characterized by XRD, FTIR, TG/DSC, FESEM, and UV-Vis methods while their
photocatalytic activity was estimated towards degradation of Reactive Orange 16 dye
(RO16). A kinetic study was performed and a detailed mechanism of RO16
photocatalytic degradation in the presence of TiO2/PPy composites was proposed based
on scavenger tests. The results showed that, despite PPy addition, TiO2 was present in
anatase form in all samples with sufficiently small crystallites (around 26 nm) and
preserved structure with no significant deviations in unit cell parameters. The band gap
energy decreased with increasing of PPy content, from 3.14 eV for pure TiO2 to 2.94 eV
for TiO2/5% PPy. All the obtained nanocomposites demonstrated higher photocatalytic
activity than pure TiO2, whereby TiO2/1% PPy nanocomposite was the most efficient by
degrading 99.6% of the dye for 105 min under simulated solar light. Therefore, the
amount of 1 wt.% should be consider as optimal amount of PPy in a composite. It is
established that the photodegradation of RO16 using TiO2/PPy nanocomposites follows
pseudo-first kinetic order. RO16 photocatalytic degradation mechanism in the presence
of TiO2/PPy nanocomposites can be well described by direct Z-scheme heterojunction
which has never been reported for TiO2/PPy system.

AB  - It is well known that TiO2-based Degussa P-25 is the mostly used comer-cial photocatalyst and that TiO2 exists in three crystalline modifications: tetragonal anatase (I41/amd) and rutile (P42/mnm) and orthorhombic brookite (Pbca). On heating, anatase and brookite, as metastable phases, can be transformed to rutile. The aim of this work was to investigate the effect of different dopants on anatase-rutile phase transition and thus on their photocatalytic behavior. For that matter, samples TiO2 M (M = Cu, Mn and V) having 5 at.% of dopants were prepared by 30 minutes hand-mixing of anatase and corresponding oxide (CuO, MnO2 and V2O5) powders in an agate mortar following by heat treatment at 700 °C for 3 h. The powder of pure anatase phase was also treated at same conditions. TG/DTA was used to define thermal treatment, and the obtained samples were characterized by powder XRD method in order to reach phase compositions, unit cell parameters and crystallite sizes. Since in the case of undoped anatase only 3 wt.% of rutile was formed, the presence of dopants accelerated phase transition: 26 and 76 wt.% of rutile was obtained beside anatase in TiO2 Mn and TiO2 V, respectively, while complete anatase to rutile phase transition occured in TiO2-Cu. The least rutile quantity in TiO2-Mn is related to the isovalency of Ti4+ and Мn4+ meaning that the incorporation of Мn4+ in TiO2 is not followed by the formation of new defects, which are driving force for phase transition, as in the case of TiO2 Cu. About 5 wt.% of the unreacted CuO was found in TiO2 Cu, which is almost all introduced quantity of CuO. This can be related to the fact that the ionic radius of Cu2+ for octahedral environment (0.870 Å) is larger than that of Ti4+ (0.745 Å). As a result, Cu2+ ions can hardly be incorporated in TiO2 comparing to smaller Мn4+ (0.670 Å) and V5+ (0.680 Å) although a small amount of Cu2+ surely was necessary to cause phase transition. Since no residues of initial oxides were found in TiO2 Mn and TiO2 V, it can be concluded that these metal ions were incorporated into anatase lattice. By comparing the calculated unit cell parameters of anatase mutually, the shrinkage along c-axis was revealed meaning the shortening of bond distances between М–Оapical. The photocatalytic activity of all synthesized samples will be tested since nanocrystalline samples were obtained according to determined crystallite sizes (55–90 nm).
AB  - Degussa P-25 је фотокатализатор на бази титан(IV)-оксида, који се најчешће користи у индустрији. TiO2 се јавља у три полиморфне модификације: тетрагоналним анатасу (I41/amd) и рутилу (P42/mnm) и ромбичном брукиту (Pbca). Анатас и брукит, као метастабилне фазе, приликом загревања прелазе у рутил. Циљ овог истраживања је испитивање утицаја различитих допаната на фазни прелаз анатаса у рутил као и на фотокаталитичка својства. Узорци TiO2-M (M = Cu, Mn и V), који садрже 5 at.% допанта, припремљени су термохемијском реакцијом на 700 °C током 3 h између хомогенизованих прахова анатаса и одговарајућих оксида (CuO, MnO2 и V2O5). Ради поређења, прах чистог анатаса је термички третиран под истим условима. Помоћу ТГ/ДТ анализе дефинисани су услови термичког третмана, док су добијени узорци окарактерисани рендгенском дифракцијом на поликристалном материјалу да би се одредио фазни састав, параметри јединичних ћелија и величина кристалита. У случају недопираног анатаса настало је свега 3 mas.% рутила, 26 и 76 mas.% рутила добијено је у TiO2 Mn и TiO2 V, редом, док се потпуни фазни прелаз анатас–рутил одиграо у TiO2 Cu. Ово значи да присуство допанта убрзава фазну трансформацију. Најмања количина рутила у TiO2 Mn може се објаснити изовалентним Ti4+ и Мn4+, тј. да уградња Мn4+ у TiO2 није праћена настанком нових дефеката који представљају вучну силу за одигравање фазног прелаза, као што је то случај код TiO2 Cu. Око 5 mas.% непрореаговалог CuO (готово почетна количина) заостало је у TiO2 Cu, зато што се Cu2+-јони теже уграђују у решетку TiO2 због већег радијуса Cu2+ у октаедарском окружењу (0,870 Å) од радијуса Ti4+ (0,745 Å), за разлику од мањих Мn4+ (0,670 Å) и V5+ (0,680 Å). Ипак, сигурно је мала количина Cu2+-јона била неопходна како би иницирала фазни прелаз. Како у TiO2 Mn и TiO2 V нису присутни остаци полазних оксида, може се закључити да су се ови јони метала уградили у решетку анатаса. Међусобним поређењем параметара јединичне ћелије анатаса, уочено је скраћење дуж c-осе, што указује на скраћење дужина веза М–Оапикални. Израчуната величина кристалита (55–90 nm) показала је да су сви добијени узорци нанокристални, па ће њихова фотокаталитичка својства бити испитана.

AB  - In this work, the decoration of noble metal nanoparticles on a semiconductor
surface was used as a strategy to reach strong visible light absorption and efficient
electron-hole separation to enhance the photocatalytic activity of ZnO.
The Ag-modified ZnO nanopowders were obtained by the green synthesis. Zinc
acetate dihydrate with different silver nitrate content (0, 0.75, 1.5 and 3 mol%) was
dissolved in ethylene glycol in the presence of chitosan. The obtained mixtures in
the form of gel were heated at 150 °C for 2 h and subsequently calcined at 400 °C
for 1 h. The obtained samples were characterized by XRPD, FESEM, HRTEM, and
UV-vis techniques while the photocatalytic efficiency was tested by monitoring the
degradation of textile dyes Reactive Orange 16 (RO16), Acid Green 25 (AG25),
Mordant Blue 9 (MB9), and Ethyl Violet (EV) then compared with the commercial
ZnO nanopowder.
The results showed that the Ag/ZnO samples consisted of ZnO nanoparticles
with an average crystallite size of about 25 nm and Ag (20–30 nm) distributed on
the surface of ZnO. The uniformity in size and nearly spherical shape of ZnO
nanoparticles, forming various forms of agglomerates, were observed. Compared to
both, the unmodified and commercial ZnO, all the prepared Ag/ZnO composites
showed a broad band in the visible region at 500 nm, resulting in a narrowing of the
band gap. This band confirms the surface plasmon resonance of the metallic Ag
nanoparticles, since they can absorb visible light and activate the photocatalyst in
the visible spectrum.
All the obtained nanopowders showed higher adsorption power and
photocatalytic activity in the degradation of RO16 dye than the commercial ZnO.
The powder with 1.5 mol% of Ag had the highest photocatalytic efficiency as a
consequence of smaller Ag particles and their good distribution, as well as the
narrowest band gap. This means that the photocatalytic activity does not depend on
the Ag content only and that the size and distribution of the metal particles play an
important role. Since the ZnO with 1.5 mol% of Ag demonstrated the best
photocatalytic activity, the same sample was tested for diverse dyes and the high
photocatalytic efficiency was also confirmed by testing on AG25, MB9 and EV
dyes.

AB  - Titanium(IV) oxide is one of the most used photocatalysts while polypyrrole (PPy) is a
promising material for photocatalytic application. The aim of this work was to obtain
TiO2/PPy composites exhibiting higher photocatalytic activity than TiO2. In order to
determine the optimal PPy content in a composite, TiO2/x%PPy (x = 0, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 3, 5
wt.%) samples were synthesized and characterized by TG/DTA, XRD, FTIR, FESEM and
UV-Vis methods, while the photocatalytic behavior was examined towards the degradation
of the textile dye RO16. Nanocrystalline TiO2 was obtained in anatase form with crystallite
size around 26 nm and preserved anatase crystal structure despite the addition of PPy
according to the calculated unit cell parameters. Almost all samples (except TiO2/3%PPy)
showed better photocatalytic activity than TiO2 while the best photocatalytic activity was
demonstrated by TiO2/1%PPy which degraded 98 % of the dye after 75 min.

AB  - In this work, in order to improve the photocatalytic efficiency of ZnO, the optimal CeO2 content in ZnO powders was determined by varying the quantity of CeO2 from 0 to 10 mol%. The structural, microstructural, optical, textural, and photocatalytic properties of the hydrothermally obtained ZnO and CeO2/ZnO nanocomposites have been investigated by using the XRPD, FESEM, HRTEM/SAED, BET, and UV–Vis techniques. Detailed characterization revealed that CeO2, having spherical nanodots of about 5 nm with a large surface area, was distributed onto the ZnO surface, whose crystallites displayed a bimodal distribution, from nano-to micro-crystals. The morphology of ZnO is a combination of nanograins and microrods that further makes a 3-D tie-like morphology. The nanocomposite containing 5 mol% of CeO2 showed about 30% better photocatalytic efficiency in the degradation of Reactive Orange 16 dye compared to other samples under simulated solar radiation. In addition, the kinetics and mechanism of photocatalytic degradation were also proposed based on the photocatalytic activity and scavenger tests.

XRPD, FTIR and FESEM analyses of II revealed the simultaneous presence of spherical nanoparticles of wurtzite ZnO and elongated nanoparticles of spinel ZnMn2O4. The specific surface area of II was determined by the BET method, whereas the volume and average size of the mesopores were calculated in accordance with the BJH method. The measurements of the mean size, polydispersity index and zeta potential showed colloidal instability of II. Two band gap values of 2.4 and 3.3 eV were determined using UV-Vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy, while the measurements of photoluminescence revealed that II is active in the blue region of the visible spectrum.

AB  - In this study, we report the influence of vanadium oxide (VO), as a photosensitive component, on the photoactivity of TiO2 nanotubes (TNTs). A series of TNTs of varying tube diameter were synthesized by the anodization of titanium foils at different voltages, while vanadium oxide was deposited on TNTs by wet chemical deposition. An improvement in the optical properties of nanotubes was observed after the deposition of vanadium oxide. An improvement in the optical properties (redshift in UV-Vis spectra) of TNTs and TNT/VO was noted. The photocatalytic activity was improved with increasing tube diameter, while it was weakened after the deposition of VO. Furthermore, photoactivity was investigated in photodiodes based on TNTs or TNT/VO and single crystals of CH3NH3PbI3. The photoelectric measurement revealed that different TNT diameters did not influence the I-V characteristic of the photodiodes, while the deposition of VO improved the photocurrent for smaller TNTs

AB  - Two types of Cu-modified Pd catalysts supported on high area carbon were prepared: Pd nanoparticles modified
with a sub-monolayer of underpotentially deposited Cu (Cu@Pd/C) and Pd-Cu alloy nanoparticles (Pd-Cu/C),
and examined for the ethanol oxidation reaction (EOR) in alkaline solution. The catalysts were characterized by
energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy and X-ray photoelectron
spectroscopy, as well as cyclic voltammetry. As reference catalysts, Pd/C and Pt/C were used. The electrochemically
active surface area of all samples was determined from COads and Cuupd desorption and Pd oxide
reduction, and used to assess their intrinsic activity for EOR. Intimate contact of Pd with Cu atoms enhanced its
activity, regardless of the type of bimetal catalyst. The atomic Pd:Cu ratio between 2:1 and 4:1 appears to be
optimal for high activity. The most active catalyst under the potentiodynamic conditions was Cu@Pd/C with
θ(Cu) = 0.21,although Pd-Cu/C was superior during the potentiostatic test. All bimetallic catalysts surpassed
Pd/C in mass activity. The EOR activity of Pt/C was higher compared to Pd-based catalysts at low potentials,
both in terms of specific and mass activity, but with a significant decline over a 30-min potentiostatic stability
test.

with a sub-monolayer of underpotentially deposited Cu (Cu@Pd/C) and Pd-Cu alloy nanoparticles (Pd-Cu/C),
and examined for the ethanol oxidation reaction (EOR) in alkaline solution. The catalysts were characterized by
energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy and X-ray photoelectron
spectroscopy, as well as cyclic voltammetry. As reference catalysts, Pd/C and Pt/C were used. The electrochemically
active surface area of all samples was determined from COads and Cuupd desorption and Pd oxide
reduction, and used to assess their intrinsic activity for EOR. Intimate contact of Pd with Cu atoms enhanced its
activity, regardless of the type of bimetal catalyst. The atomic Pd:Cu ratio between 2:1 and 4:1 appears to be
optimal for high activity. The most active catalyst under the potentiodynamic conditions was Cu@Pd/C with
θ(Cu) = 0.21,although Pd-Cu/C was superior during the potentiostatic test. All bimetallic catalysts surpassed
Pd/C in mass activity. The EOR activity of Pt/C was higher compared to Pd-based catalysts at low potentials,
both in terms of specific and mass activity, but with a significant decline over a 30-min potentiostatic stability
test.",

a highly active HER electrocatalyst. These defect-rich TiO2 nanostructures provide an

Abstract
Cobalt-ruthenium alloys were electrochemically deposited at Ti2AlC suport from hloride based acid electrolyte. Thin layers of Co-Ru were obtained by potentiostatic electrodeposition in the potential range of -0.6 V to -1.0 V vs SCE. The chemical composition and physical-chemical characterization have been performed by X-ray Fluorescence spectroscopy (XRF), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM-EDS).  It was found that increasing of Co content in the alloy led to gradual shift of the crystalline structure from HCP to FCC Co-Ru solid solution. The electrochemical characterization of the catalysts was done by linear sweep voltammetry, cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy in alkaline electrolyte. The optimal conditions for deposition of nanocrystalline Co-Ru alloys with superior activity for hydrogen evolution were discussed in terms of activity and stability, as well as commercial acceptable costs for the catalysts production.

AB  - The oxygen reduction reaction was investigated at 10 monolayers (MLs) of Pt electrodeposited on (Nb–Ti)2AlC substrate. Following the discussion of detailed kinetics and electrodeposition optimisation in the authors’ previous paper, the focus of this research was on stability testing. Previously performed optimisation results showed the best activity shown by 10 monolayers of Pt. Catalyst characterisation was performed by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy. SEM, EDS and XPS analysis showed that the surface was covered with a homogeneous layer of Pt. TEM analysis of a cross-section confirmed the presence of Pt layer of thickness ∼3.5 nm, corresponding to the 10 MLs of Pt. Although the mass activity for the ORR at 0.8 V vs. RHE of 37.4 A g−1 was comparable with the best one for the Pt/C benchmark, US Department of Energy Protocols revealed excellent catalyst stability – the loss of electrochemically active surface area (EASA) was found to be only 9.3%.

AB  - Hexagonal (P63cm) yttrium manganite, YMnO3, is a multiferroic material with
ferroelectric transition at TC ≈ 900 K and antiferromagnetic transition at TN ≈ 70 K. Multiferroic behavior attracts a lot of attention because of its potential for
various applications. The application possibilities are limited by large
microcracking and microporosity of YMnO3 ceramics.
In this work, the influence of Ti-doping on structural, ferroelectric and magnetic
properties of YMnO3 ceramics was investigated. YMn1–xTixO3+δ (x = 0, 0.04, 0.08,
0.10, 0.15, 0.20) powders were prepared using sol-gel, polymerization complex
method from citrate precursors, which were then calcinated at 900 °C for 4 h. The
ceramic samples were obtained after sintering for 2 h at: 1400 °C for YMnO3,
YMn0.96Ti0.04O3+δ, YMn0.92Ti0.08O3+δ and YMn0.90Ti0.10O3+δ; 1450 C for
YMn0.85Ti0.15O3+δ; 1470 °C for YMn0.80Ti0.20O3+δ. X-ray diffraction (XRD),
transmission and scanning electron microscopy (TEM and SEM) were used for
structural and microstructural analysis of samples. Ferroelectric measurements of
P(E) loops and leakage currents, and magnetic measurements of zero field cooled
(ZFC) and field cooled (FC) M(T) curves, as well as M(H) curves, were enabled
multiferroic characterization of ceramic samples.
The samples x = 0 and 0.04 are crystallized in a single phased hexagonal
structure, (P63cm), the samples x = 0.08 and 0.10 exhibited the presence of both
hexagonal phase and rhombohedral phase (R3c), and the samples x = 0.15 and 0.20
are crystallized in rhombohedral 1×1×3 superstructure. Ti-doped YMnO3 ceramic
samples showed reduced density of microcracks, and inter- and intragranular pores,
and large increase in relative density (greater than 90 %) for YMn1–xTixO3+δ (x =
0.10, 0.15 and 0.20) samples. Leakage currents for most of doped samples were
lower than leakage current of undoped sample, but the ferroelectric response was not
significantly improved. Doping of YMnO3 with nonmagnetic Ti4+ led to suppression
of antiferromagnetic ordering visible through decrease of the Néel temperature and
Weiss parameter and the appearance of weak ferromagnetism.

AB  - Yttrium manganite, YMnO3, was doped with different concentrations of titanium (x = 0, 0.04, 0.08, 0.10, 0.15, 0.20) in order to improve the microstructural and multiferroic properties. The powders were prepared using sol-gel polymerization complex method from citrate precursors. Depending on the titanium concentration, the hexagonal structure and/or the rhombohedral superstructure are present in the sintered samples. The YMn1–xTixO3+δ (x = 0.10, 0.15, 0.20) ceramic samples showed significantly reduced density of microcracks, and of inter- and intragranular pores, and relative densities greater than 90 %. The structural parameters for YMn1–xTixO3+δ (x = 0, 0.10, 0.15) were correlated with the results of magnetic and ferroelectric measurements. The most of titanium-doped samples showed a reduction of the leakage current density in comparison with undoped YMnO3, and their ferroelectric responses were slightly improved. The modifications in structural arrangement resulted in partial suppression of ideal antiferromagnetic ordering visible through decrease of the Néel temperature and Weiss parameter, as well as the appearance of weak ferromagnetism and increase of magnetization (especially, in samples x = 0.08, 0.10, 0.15). These changes in physical quantities most likely originated from incorporation of the uncompensated magnetic moments and possible spin canting induced by enhanced symmetry break of the superexchange bridges.

AB  - In recent years, thermal decomposition studies of transition metal complexes with benzenepolycarboxylate ligands have become an area of a great importance due to the possibility of obtaining useful metal oxides with desirable electrical, magnetic and catalytic properties [1]. As a
contrast to conventional methods for the preparation of metal oxides, such as hydrothermal or sol–
gel treatment, thermolysis is faster, more efficient and environmentally friendly. Mn(II)–dipya
(dipya = 2,2’-dipyridylamine) complex with tetraanion of 1,2,4,5-benzenetetracarboxylic
(pyromellitic, H4pyr) acid, [Mn2(dipya)2(pyr)(H2O)2], has been prepared and characterized by
elemental, spectral and microscopy analyses. Direct thermolysis of the complex up to 1200 °C in an air atmosphere yielded spinel Mn3O4 oxide material. The obtained Mn3O4 has been characterized for its structural, spectroscopic, morphological and optical properties. The possibilities of using this oxide as photocatalyst or co-photocatalyst for removing textile organic dyes, as well as inorganic pigmentary material, were also investigated and discussed.

AB  - The structural, microstructural, optical and photocatalytic properties of
hydrothermally obtained single-phase ZnO and CeO2@ZnO nanocomposites have
been investigated by the XRPD, FESEM, HRTEM/SAED and UV-vis techniques. In
order to improve the photocatalytic efficiency of ZnO, the optimal CeO2 content in
ZnO powders was determined by varying the quantity of CeO2 from 0 to 10 mol%.
The results showed that CeO2 with spherical crystallites of about 5 nm was
distributed onto the ZnO surface, whose crystallites displayed a bimodal
distribution, from nano- to microcrystallites. The morphology of ZnO particles
varied from elongated nanograins to microrods that further formed a 3-D tie-like
morphology which was disrupted by CeO2 adding. By degrading 90% of RO16 dye
in 180 minutes, the composite containing 5 mol% of CeO2 showed approximately
for 30% better photocatalytic efficiency comparing to other samples, although all the
obtained powders have similar structural, microstructural and optical characteristics.
This is obviously the optimal ratio of these two phases, in which synergy of CeO2
adsorption and ZnO photocatalytic effect reaches its maximum due to reduced
recombination rate and improved adsorption. The kinetic of RO16 degradation could
be described by a pseudo-first order model.

in 180 minutes, the composite containing 5 mol% of CeO2 showed approximately
for 30% better photocatalytic efficiency comparing to other samples, although all the
obtained powders have similar structural, microstructural and optical characteristics.
This is obviously the optimal ratio of these two phases, in which synergy of CeO2
adsorption and ZnO photocatalytic effect reaches its maximum due to reduced
recombination rate and improved adsorption. The kinetic of RO16 degradation could
be described by a pseudo-first order model.",

AB  - У овој дисертацији представљено је добијање фотокаталитички активних материјала на бази цинк-оксида, титан-диоксида и церијум-диоксида у циљу уклањања штетних текстилних боја из отпадних вода. Главне методе синтезе биле су солво- и хидротермална, а у појединим случајевима је коришћена и преципитациона. Испитана су структурна, морфолошка, термичка, текстурална, оптичка и фотокаталитичка својства добијених наноматеријала: ZnO, ZnO модификованог сребром, TiO2, различитих титаната натријума, CeO2, као и нанокомпозита CeO2/ZnO и TiO2/ZnTiO3.
Између наночестица ZnO добијених солвотермалном синтезом и микроштапића ZnO добијених хидротермалним процесом нема значајне разлике у фотокаталитичкој активности. Нанопрахови Ag/ZnO синтетисани преципитационом методом су мање ефикасни у разградњи боје RO16 у односу на солвотермално добијене нанопрахове Аg/ZnО.
Девет производа на бази TiO2 је добијено при различитим условима хидротермалног третмана полазног наноанатаса у раствору NaOH. Једнофазни титанат Na0,4H1,6Ti2O5·H2O, који је неактиван за разградњу RО16, добијен је након најинтезивнијег третмана.
Испитан је утицај различитих прекурсора, коришћених при хидротермалној синтези, на добијање CeO2 и његова својства. Иако ниједан добијени нанопрах CeO2 није показао значајну фотокаталитичку активност за разградњу RО16, онај добијен из CeCl3·7H2O показао се као одличан адсорбент.
Код ZnO прахова са различитим садржајем CeO2 одређен је оптималан удео CeО2 у циљу побољшања фотокаталитичке ефикасности ZnО. Композит који садржи 5 mol.% CеО2 има бољу фотокаталитичку ефикасност приликом разградње RО16 у односу на немодификовани ZnО.
Приликом синтезе композита на бази ТiО2 и ZnО добијен је нанокомпозит са 42 mas.% TiO2 и 58 mas.% ZnTiO3 који има већу ефикасност него ТiО2 приликом уклањања боје АG25.
AB  - The synthesis of photocatalytic materials based on ZnO, TiO2 and CeO2 for textile wastewater treatment is presented in this dissertation. The main synthetic procedures were solvo- and hydrothermal but, the precipitation method was used as well. The structural, morphological, thermal, textural, optical and photocatalytic properties of the obtained nanomaterials: ZnO, Аg modified ZnO, TiO2, various Na titanates, CeO2, CeO2/ZnO and TiO2/ZnTiO3 nanocomposites, were examined.
There was no significant difference in photocatalytic activity between the solvothermally obtained ZnO nanoparticles and hydrothermally prepared ZnO microrods. Based on degradation of RO16, all the Ag/ZnO nanopowders obtained by the precipitation method were less efficient than ones synthesized by the solvothermal method.
TiO2-based products were obtained by the hydrothermal treatment of starting nanoanatase using NaOH solution under different conditions. The single Na0.4H1.6Ti2O5·H2O, which was inactive for degradation RO16, was obtained after the most intensive treatment.
The influence of different precursors used in the hydrothermal synthesis, on the properties of obtained CeO2 nanopowders was investigated. Although none of obtained CeO2 did not show any significant photocatalytic activity to RO16, one synthesized from the CeCl3·7H2O exhibited adsorption property.
In order to improve the photocatalytic efficiency of ZnO, the optimal CeO2 content in ZnO powders was determined. The composite containing 5 mol% of CeO2 showed better photocatalytic efficiency in the degradation of RO16 compared to the unmodified ZnO.
The nanocrystalline composite containing 42 wt% of TiO2 and 58 wt% of ZnTiO3, was obtained within the try to synthesize TiO2/ZnO composites, was more efficient than the TiO2 in removal of AG25.

kompoziti fotokatalitički aktivniji od TiO2, i da optimalan sadržaj polianilina iznosi
3 mas.%. Naime, uzorak TiO2/3%PANI je, nakon 60 minuta, razgradio 95 % boje, što je za
17 % više u odnosu na TiO2, dok je nakon 120 minuta fotorazgradnja boje potpuna. Pored
toga, ovaj uzorak je pokazao čak 14 puta izraženiju adsorpciju od TiO2. Efikasnost
TiO2/5%PANI je slična TiO2/3%PANI, ali sa slabije izraženim adsorpcionim svojstvima,

AB  - Titanium dioxide is the most suitable semiconductor for photocatalytic application due
to its high efficiency, increased stability, low-cost, and non-toxicity. However, it is
possible to enhance the photocatalytic activity of TiO2 by homogenizing it with
conductive polymers. One of the most attractive conductive polymers is polypyrrole
(PPy) owing to its stability, low-cost, and special redox properties. The aim of this work
was to obtain the TiO2/PPy nanocomposites with a higher photocatalytic activity
compared to TiO2. In order to determine the optimal content of PPy, four TiO2/x%PPy
samples (x = 0, 1, 3, and 5 wt.%) were synthesized and characterized by XRD and
TG/DSC analyses. The photocatalytic activity was examined towards the degradation of
toxic textile azo dye Reactive Orange 16. It was observed that an increase in PPy content
led to better adsorption capacity of the synthesized nanocomposites. Samples
TiO2/1%PPy and TiO2/5%PPy demonstrated better photocatalytic activity than TiO2,
while TiO2/3%PPy showed very similar photocatalytic activity to TiO2. Near complete
degradation of the dye (98 %) was reached in 75 min by using TiO2/1%PPy, comparing
to pure TiO2, which degraded the same amount of the dye in 120 min. Considering all
the obtained results, the optimal content of PPy in the composite for degradation of
Reactive Orange 16 is 1 wt.%.
