Modified micro-space using self-organized nanoparticles for reduction of methylene blue

Abstract

By using silica layers bound to the surface of the inner wall of the microchannel via a self-assembly technique which relies on capillary forces to organize the colloids, TiO2 particles were attached to the inner surface of a microcapillary. The reduction rate of methylene blue increased by more than 150 times in the SiO2/TiO2 modified micro-space compared to that in a batch system.
