Abstract

TiO2 hierarchical microsphere assembled from anatase TiO2 nanosheets has been successfully prepared and exhibited excellent catalytic activities of H2 production and benzyl alcohol selective oxidized to benzaldehyde. These enhanced photoactivity can be mainly ascribed to the charge separation promoted by the surface F and nanosheet units, enhancement of substrate molecular transport profited from the hierarchical structure.
