Abstract

Crystallized and fluorinated nanoporous Ta 2O 5 spheres were prepared by a combination of co-precipitation and hydrothermal methods in a NH 4F-containing water solution. The as-prepared porous spheres, with a pore-size of around 7 nm and a large specific surface area of 132 m 2 g -1, show superior photocatalytic hydrogen production activity over P25 and commercial-Ta 2O 5.
