Because nowadays more than 200 kind of diseases are to some extent connected to atmospheric pollution, with a very significant impact on the social cost of a community, it can be important to study the effect that plans for using technologies able to treat urban areas atmosphere as a whole (in...

This work comprises an experimental study on the effect of various dispersing agents on the morphology of mesoporous TiO2 films prepared by the doctor blade method and on the performance of the resulting dye-sensitized solar cells. TiO2 films were prepared using a commercial nanopowder, Degussa...

A novel PdAg/TiO2 nanofiber electrocatalyst for methanol oxidation was fabricated by using TiO2 nanofiber as support. The structural and electrochemical properties of the PdAg/TiO2 nanofiber catalyst were characterized by XRD (X-ray diffraction), TEM (the transmission electron microscopy) and...

A novel structure of dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSC) with integrated photoanode was first reported in this paper. Titanium threads and titanium sheet were first used in this novel structure in place of traditional glass substrate, thus reducing the series resistance of the substrates. An...
