An ex-situ adsorption measurement method based on photoelectrochem. oxidn. principle has been was developed. The ex-situ adsorption method involves a washing step for the titania surface after the adsorption step. In this work, an in-situ photoelectrochem. detn. of adsorption of org. compds. and water on titania is developed. By eliminating the washing step after adsorption, this proposed in-situ method is capable to study the adsorption behavior in an extremely small time scale (e.g., < 1s). To our knowledge, this has not been achieved in the literature. The proposed method can directly quantify the amt. of adsorbates ...

To our knowledge, this has not been achieved in the literature. The proposed method can directly quantify the amt. of adsorbates at a titania surface in a sensitive, reproducible and accurate manner. The adsorption of phthalic acid was studied as a test case. The relationship between the adsorption amt. at the titania surface and the concn. of phthalic acid in the soln. was obtained.
