Abstract

Hygroscopic Mg(OH) ₂ gel was topotactically decomposed on TiO ₂ particle surfaces, resulting in highly nanoporous MgO-coated TiO ₂ particles. The highly hygroscopic and nanoporous MgO shell absorbed more water molecules and hydroxyl groups from the environment to yield an improved photocatalytic property of the core-shell particles as compared to the uncoated TiO ₂ counterpart.
