AB  - The efficiency of titanate-nanotubes-based photocatalysts towards hydrogen production was studied in the presence of the sacrificial agent, 2-propanol. The highest hydrogen production rate (~120 lmol h 1 g 1 ) was observed over surface-modified titanate nanotubes by 5-amino salicylic acid decorated with nanometer-sized silver nanoparticles. The X-ray diffraction analysis, transmission electron microscopy, nitrogen adsorption–desorption isotherms, and diffuse reflection spectroscopy were applied to characterize the prepared photocatalytic materials. The better photocatalytic performance of inorganic–organic hybrid materials in comparison to the pristine titanate nanotubes is a consequence of their improved light-harvesting ability due to the formation of interfacial charge transfer (ICT) complex, as well as the presence of metallic silver nanoparticles that suppress the recombination of photo-generated charge carriers. The spin trapping EPR experiments under irradiation of prepared photocatalysts with either UV or visible light were used to monitor the appearance of hydroxyl radicals and superoxide radical anions. The generation of superoxide radical anions under visible light irradiation was detected for hybrid materials, but not for the pristine titanate nanotubes. These results are a consequence of enhanced promotion ofelectrons to the conduction band due to extended absorption in visible spectral range in hybrids and support the higher efficiency of hydrogen generation observed for surface-modified titanate nanotubes by 5-amino salicylic acid decorated with silver nanoparticles.

AB  - Surface modification of Al2O3 powders, prepared using reproducible sol-gel synthetic route with small colorless organic molecules, induces charge transfer complex formation and the appearance of absorption in the visible spectral region. Comprehensive microstructural characterization involving transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction analysis, and nitrogen adsorption–desorption isotherms, revealed that γ-crystalline alumina powders consist of mesoporous particles in the size range from 0.1 to 0.3 μm, with specific surface area of 54.8 m2/g, and pore radius between 3 and 4 nm. The attachment of catecholate-type of ligands (catechol, caffeic acid, gallic acid, dopamine and 2,3-dihydroxy naphthalene), salicylate-type of ligands (salicylic acid and 5-amino salicylic acid), and ascorbic acid, to the surface such γ-Al2O3 particles leads to the formation of colored powders and activates their absorption in visible-light spectral region. To the best of our knowledge, similar transformation of an insulator (Al2O3), with the band gap energy of 8.7 eV, into a semiconductor-like hybrid material with tunable optical properties has not been reported in the literature before. The density functional theory (DFT) calculations with periodic boundary conditions were performed in order to estimate the energy gaps of various inorganic/organic hybrids. The calculated values compare well with the experimental data. The good agreement between the calculated and experimentally determined band gaps was found, thus demonstrating predictive ability of the theory when proper model is used.

3,4-dihydroxybenzoic acid, caffeic acid and 2,3-dihydroxy naphthalene), induces the appearance of absorption in
the visible spectral region due to the interfacial charge transfer (ICT) complex formation. Thorough characterization
involving transmission electron microscopy, XRD analysis, and nitrogen adsorption-desorption isotherms,
revealed that loosely agglomerated CeO2 particles of the size ranging from 2 to 4 nm have cubic fluorite structure
and specific surface area of 140 m2/g. The attachment of salicylate- and catecholate-type of ligands to the surface
of CeO2 powders leads to the formation of colored powders with tunable absorption in the visible spectral region.
The density functional theory calculations with properly design model systems were performed to estimate the

Thorough characterization of materials (electron microscopy, nitrogen adsorption desorption isotherms, diffuse reflectance spectroscopy) followed each step during the course of nanocomposite preparation. Synthesized powder consists of rod-like hydroxyapatite particles (40-60 x 10-20 nm, length x diameter) decorated with nano-sized spherical silver particles whose content in nanocomposite was found to be 1.9 wt.-%. Concentration- and time-dependent bacterial reduction data indicated that use of silver nanoparticles even at concentration as low as 1 mu g mL(-1) lead to complete reduction of both bacteria (E. coli and S. aureus). On the other hand, non-toxic behavior of nanocomposite in broad concentration range (0.05-2.0 mg mL(-1)) was found towards C albicans. Successful inactivation of E. coli and S. aureus in five repeated cycles proved that synthesized nanocomposite can perform under long-run working conditions.

AB  - A simple bottom-up method for the preparation of novel and very efficient photocatalytic nanocomposite system based on carbonized form of polyaniline (PANI) and colloidal TiO2 nanocrystals has been developed. The carbonized PANI/TiO2 nanocomposites were synthesized in a two-step procedure. Firstly, non-carbonized PANI/TiO2 nanocomposites were synthesized by the chemical oxidative polymerization of aniline (ANI) with ammonium peroxydisulfate, in the presence of colloidal TiO2 nanoparticles (TiO2 NPs) (d 4.5 nm). Initial [TiO2 NANI] mole ratios were 20, 50, and 80. In the second step, following the polymerization process, the carbonization of PANI/TiO2 nanocomposites was performed by thermal treatment in an inert atmosphere at 650 degrees C. The morphological and structural properties of the carbonized nanocomposites were studied using transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) and Raman spectroscopy. The accomplishment of complete carbonization of PANI in PANI/TiO2 nanocomposites was confirmed by Raman spectroscopy. The appearance of anatase and rutile crystal forms in TiO2 NPs upon carbonization, with mass ratio depending on the initial molar ratio of ANI and TiO2 NPs was revealed by XRD measurements, TEM, SEM and Raman spectroscopy. The photocatalytic activities of carbonized PANI/TiO2 nanocomposites were evaluated following the photocatalytic degradation processes of Rhodamine B and Methylene blue. Carbonized PANI/TiO2 nanocomposites showed higher photocatalytic efficacy compared to bare TiO2 NPs and non-carbonized PANI/TiO2 nanocomposites. The porosity and surface structure of carbonized PANI/TiO2 nanocomposites, as well as crystalline structure of TiO2, affect photocatalytic activity of nanocomposites.

The morphological and structural properties of the carbonized nanocomposites were studied using transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) and Raman spectroscopy. The accomplishment of complete carbonization of PANI in PANI/TiO2 nanocomposites was confirmed by Raman spectroscopy. The appearance of anatase and rutile crystal forms in TiO2 NPs upon carbonization, with mass ratio depending on the initial molar ratio of ANI and TiO2 NPs was revealed by XRD measurements, TEM, SEM and Raman spectroscopy. The photocatalytic activities of carbonized PANI/TiO2 nanocomposites were evaluated following the photocatalytic degradation processes of Rhodamine B and Methylene blue. Carbonized PANI/TiO2 nanocomposites showed higher photocatalytic efficacy compared to bare TiO2 NPs and non-carbonized PANI/TiO2 nanocomposites.

AB  - A simple bottom-up method for the preparation of novel and very efficient photocatalytic nanocomposite system based on carbonized form of polyaniline (PANI) and colloidal TiO2 nanocrystals has been developed. The carbonized PANI/TiO2 nanocomposites were synthesized in a two-step procedure. Firstly, non-carbonized PANI/TiO2 nanocomposites were synthesized by the chemical oxidative polymerization of aniline (ANI) with ammonium peroxydisulfate, in the presence of colloidal TiO2 nanoparticles (TiO2 NPs) (d 4.5 nm). Initial [TiO2 NANI] mole ratios were 20, 50, and 80. In the second step, following the polymerization process, the carbonization of PANI/TiO2 nanocomposites was performed by thermal treatment in an inert atmosphere at 650 degrees C.

AB  - Under normal conditions, titanium dioxide does not absorb visible light photons due to large band gap. Nevertheless, when titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiO2 NPs) are surface-modified with thiosalicylic acid (TSA), their optical properties are altered owing to the formation of charge transfer complex that initiates absorption in the visible spectral range. Colloidal and sol-gel techniques were used to synthesize uniform TiO2 NPs of different sizes (average diameters in the range 4-15 nm), and effects of their subsequent modification by TSA molecules were compared with effect of modification of commercial Degussa TiO2 powder. Thorough microstructural characterization of TiO2 nanoparticulates was performed including transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, as well as nitrogen adsorption-desorption isotherms. Optical measurements revealed that all surface-modified TiO2 samples with TSA have similar spectral features independent of their morphological differences, and, more importantly, absorption onset of modified TiO2 samples was found to be red-shifted by 1.0 eV compared to the unmodified ones. The mode of binding between TSA and surface Ti atoms was analyzed by infrared spectroscopy. Finally, the quantum chemical calculations, based on density functional theory, were performed to support optical characterization of surface-modified TiO2 with TSA.

AB  - The biogenic hydroxyapatite (BHAP), obtained by proper treatment of bovine bones, was functionalized with 5-aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA). The coordination of 5-ASA to the surface of BHAP leads to the charge transfer (CT) complex formation accompanied with absorption in visible spectral range. The sorption ability of surface-modified BHAP with 5-ASA (5-ASA/BHAP) for removal of Pb2+ and Cu2+ ions from single- and bi-component solutions was compared with unmodified BHAP. The thorough characterization of both sorbents, BHAP and 5-ASA/BHAP, was performed including X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), nitrogen adsorption-desorption isotherms, as well as diffuse reflection spectroscopy. Sorption kinetics and equilibriums for both ions (Pb2+ and Cu2+) by as-prepared BHAP and 5-ASA/BHAP are quite different. Functionalized sorbent demonstrated faster sorption kinetic and higher maximum sorption capacity for Pb2+ ions from bi-component solutions. From equimolar Pb2+ and Cu2+ mixture with a total concentration of 10-2 mol/L, 66% of Pb2+ was recovered using BHAP, while 97% using 5-ASA/BHAP. These preliminary data indicate potential applicability of properly functionalized hydroxyapatite for selective removal of heavy metal ions from contaminated water.

AB  - The synthesized rod-like Ag2CO3 particles (2-4 x 0.3-0.6 mu m, length x diameter) served as a precursor for preparation of the AgX/Ag2CO3 (X = CI, I) composites by ion exchange method. The various microstructural (X-ray diffraction analysis, transmission electron microscopy, nitrogen adsorption desorption isotherms) and optical (diffuse reflection spectroscopy) techniques were used for thorough characterization of obtained heterostructures. The enhanced photocatalytic performance of AgX/Ag2CO3 heterostructures in comparison to Ag2CO3 nanorods (NRs) was evidenced using degradation of organic dye methylene blue as a test reaction. Also, the formation of composites improved their stability under long run illumination conditions. The effect of AgX content on photocatalytic activity of the composites were also investigated. The possible photocatalytic mechanism that facilitates efficient separation of photo-formed charge carriers in heterostructures was discussed in terms of the relative energetic of valence and conduction bands.

Also, the formation of composites improved their stability under long run illumination conditions. The effect of AgX content on photocatalytic activity of the composites were also investigated. The possible photocatalytic mechanism that facilitates efficient separation of photo-formed charge carriers in heterostructures was discussed in terms of the relative energetic of valence and conduction bands.",

AB  - The biogenic hydroxyapatite (BHAP), obtained by proper treatment of bovine bones, was functionalized with 5-aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA). The coordination of 5-ASA to the surface of BHAP leads to the charge transfer (CT) complex formation accompanied with absorption in visible spectral range. The sorption ability of surface-modified BHAP with 5-ASA (5-ASA/BHAP) for removal of Pb2+ and Cu2+ ions from single- and bi-component solutions was compared with unmodified BHAP. The thorough characterization of both sorbents, BHAP and 5-ASA/BHAP, was performed including X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), nitrogen adsorption-desorption isotherms, as well as diffuse reflection spectroscopy. Sorption kinetics and equilibriums for both ions (Pb2+ and Cu2+) by as-prepared BHAP and 5-ASA/BHAP are quite different. Functionalized sorbent demonstrated faster sorption kinetic and higher maximum sorption capacity for Pb2+ ions from bi-component solutions. From equimolar Pb2+ and Cu2+ mixture with a total concentration of 10-2 mol/L, 66% of Pb2+ was recovered using BHAP, while 97% using 5-ASA/BHAP. These preliminary data indicate potential applicability of properly functionalized hydroxyapatite for selective removal of heavy metal ions from contaminated water.

AB  - The synthetic procedures for preparation of free-standing and attached to polymer support surface modified TiO2 nanoparticles (NPs) with absorption extended into the visible spectral region due to charge transfer complex formation were developed. The one-step synthesis of colloids consisting of surface-modified TiO2 NPs is based on the reaction between titanium(IV) isopropoxide (TTIP) and lauryl galatte in nonprotic organic solvents (tetrahydrofuran, xylol, chloroform). The poly(GMA-co-EGDMA) copolymer decorated with surface-modified TiO2 NPs was obtained in two steps. First, copolymer was functionalized with dopamine and then treated with TTIP in organic solvent at slightly elevated temperature. Thorough microstructural and optical characterization of free-standing and attached to polymer support surface-modified TiO2 NPs was performed involving transmission electron microscopy as well as absorption and reflection spectroscopy. Infrared spectroscopy was used to understand coordination of ligands to surface Ti atoms. Photoredox chemistry of surface-modified TiO2 NPs attached to the polymer support was tested. Enhanced photooxidative ability of composite was demonstrated by degradation of organic dye crystal violet under visible light illumination, i.e., using photons with energy smaller than 2.75 eV. On the other hand, photocatalytic hydrogen production was used to demonstrate photoreduction ability of surface modified TiO2 NPs attached to the polymer support.

AB  - TiO2 powders with different specific surface area were prepared using reproducible, sol gel synthetic route and their ability to form hybrids with catechol and 5-amino salicylic acid was compared with the commercially available Degussa P25 TiO2 powder. Microstructural characterization involving transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction analysis and nitrogen adsorption-desorption isotherms indicated that TiO2 samples cover reasonably wide size and/or specific surface area range (50-115 m(2)/g). The surface modification of TiO2 powders with catechol and 5-amino salicylic acid induced significant shift of absorption to the visible spectral region due to charge transfer complex formation. It should be emphasized that tunable optical properties of TiO2 in powder form have never been reported in the literature. The largest red shift of the absorption onset was observed for sample with the largest specific surface area upon surface modification with both ligands. The binding of the modifier molecules to the surface Ti atoms was studied using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy.
