Vanadium/iron co-doped nanoTiO2 transparent hydrosol with an average particle size of 3.8 nm was synthesized by a novel complexation-controlled hydrolysis method at room temperature and atmospheric pressure by using TiCl4, ferric nitrate, ammonium metavanadate, etc. as raw materials. The composition, phase structure, particle size, absorbance spectrum, and photocatalytic performance of samples were characterized by XRD, EDS, nanolaser particle size analyzer, and UV-Vis spectrophotometer. The photocatalytic properties of V/Fe doped TiO2 were studied through degrading acid 3R dye, and the results show that when the content of V/Fe was 0.5%, the degradation rate reached more than 96% under irridation for 60 min.

Sulfur-doped nanoTiO2transparent hydrosol with an average particle size of 3.8 nm was synthesized by a novel complexation-controlled hydrolysis method at room temperature and atmospheric pressure by using TiCl4, thiourea, organic carboxylic acid, NH3H2O, D-sorbitol etc. as raw materials. The composition, phase structure, particle size, absorbance spectrum, and photocatalytic performance of samples were characterized by XRD, nanolaser particle size analyzer, ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometer. In addition, the influence of reaction conditions in the synthesis process was also studied. The results indicate that when nanoparticle doped with 0.5% S, and the reflux time was 15 min, the photocatalytic performance of sulfur-doped TiO2hydrosol was best.

In this study, surfaces of copper plates were coated with a thick alumina layer by the plasma spray coating to fabricate a composite with a dielectric performance that made them suitable as substrates in electronic devices with high thermal dissipation. The performance of alumina dielectric layer fabricated by the plasma spray coating and traditional screen-printing process was compared, respectively. Effects of the spraying parameters and size of alumina particles on the microstructure, thickness, and the surface roughness of the coated layer were explored. In addition, the thermal resistance perpendicular to the interface of copper and alumina and the breakdown voltage across the alumina layer of the composite were also investigated. Experimental results indicated that alumina particles with 5-22 μm in diameter tended to form a thicker layer with a poorer surface roughness than that of the particles with 22-45 μm in diameter. The thermal resistance increased with the surface roughness of the alumina layer, and the breakdown voltage was affected by the ambient moisture, the microstructure and the thickness of the layer. The optimal parameters for plasma spray coating were an alumina powder of particles size between 22 and 45 μm, a plasma power of 40 kW, a spraying velocity of 750 m/s, an argon flow rate of 45 L/min, a spraying distance of 140 mm, and a spraying angle of 90°. It can be concluded that an alumina layer thickness of 20 μm provided a low surface roughness, low thermal resistance, and highly reliable breakdown voltage (38 V/μm).
