Abstract
Titania is considered to be one of the most versatile material in its nanoform. Scientific community looks towards it to address various pressing global problems. One such problem is aquatic pollution arising from organic chemicals such as dyes, pesticides, antibiotics etc. due to industrial, domestic and agricultural activities. Titania proves to be very effective to address this problem owing to its superior photocatalytic properties. In this review, we will review the recent advances in titania-based nanocomposites. The recent advances discussed in this review include synthesis of titania, modification of titania, exploration of various supports such as silica, carbon, graphene etc., that is documented to enhance its environmental remediation properties.
期刊介绍：
Designed Monomers and Polymers ( DMP) publishes prompt peer-reviewed papers and short topical reviews on all areas of macromolecular design and applications. Emphasis is placed on the preparations of new monomers, including characterization and applications. Experiments should be presented in sufficient detail (including specific observations, precautionary notes, use of new materials, techniques, and their possible problems) that they could be reproduced by any researcher wishing to repeat the work.
The journal also includes macromolecular design of polymeric materials (such as polymeric biomaterials, biomedical polymers, etc.) with medical applications.
DMP provides an interface between organic and polymer chemistries and aims to bridge the gap between monomer synthesis and the design of new polymers. Submssions are invited in the areas including, but not limited to:
-macromolecular science, initiators, macroinitiators for macromolecular design
-kinetics, mechanism and modelling aspects of polymerization
-new methods of synthesis of known monomers
-new monomers (must show evidence for polymerization, e.g. polycondensation, sequential combination, oxidative coupling, radiation, plasma polymerization)
-functional prepolymers of various architectures such as hyperbranched polymers, telechelic polymers, macromonomers, or dendrimers
-new polymeric materials with biomedical applications
