Abstract
Abstract In this paper, a dye modified titanium dioxide/graphene composite (DTG20) was prepared using direct grey D, a dye with good water solubility, as a modifier. Then the DTG20 and its intermediates, including TiO2 and titanium dioxide/graphene (TG), were finished on cotton fabric through the padding, coating and compounding methods, respectively. Photocatalytic properties of the treated fabrics were investigated using the MB simulated pollutant. It was found that the photodegradation efficiency of MB shown by DTG20 finished fabric treated with the compounding method can reach 90.55 %, and after four recycling experiments, the removal rate of MB can still reach 77.07 %. After being exposed to sunlight for 6 hours, the photodegradation efficiency of MB stained on the surface of DTG20 treated fabric can achieve 91.44 %; therefore, it also exhibited an excellent self-cleaning effect.
