Effects of hydrothermal parameters on morphology, crystal structure, light absorption, separation efficiencyof photo-generated charge carriers, and photocatalytic removal of Bisphenol A (BPA) of Ti-basedTiO2 nanomaterials were systematically investigated. Through changing hydrothermal parameters,TiO2 nanobelts, TiO2 nanosheets and TiO2 nanowires were prepared. With increasing NaOH concentration,hydrothermal temperature, and hydrothermal time, more TiO2 with (101) crystal plane grew onTi substrate, resulting in higher crystallinity. The UV-light absorption enhanced with increasing NaOHconcentration, but decreased with improving hydrothermal temperature, hydrothermal time, and HClconcentration. Variation of UV-light absorption was mainly affected by morphology, and UV-light absorptionof TiO2 nanomaterials with different morphologies was arranged in order ofnanobelts > nanosheets > nanowires. The hydrothermal growth of TiO2 nanomaterials on Ti plate conformedto Ostwald ripening mechanism. Variation trend of photo-generated current was consistent withthat of BPA degradation, they both first increased and then decreased within investigated range. The optimalNaOH concentration, hydrothermal temperature, hydrothermal time, and HCl washing concentrationwere 1 M, 170℃, 28 h, and 0.1 M, respectively. Under this condition, Ti-based TiO2 nanosheets exhibitedthe highest BPA removal efficiency (92.7%), which was due to highly ordered nanosheet structure, goodcrystallinity, appropriate UV-light absorption and high separation efficiency of electron-hole pairs.
