Iodine-doped TiO2nanocrystallites (denoted as I-TNCs) were prepared via a newly developed triblock copolymer-mediated sol–gel method at a temperature of 393K. I-doping, crystallization and the formation of porous structure have been simultaneously achieved. The obtained particles were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and UV–vis spectrophotometer. The results indicated that the as-prepared I-TNCs possessed a diameter of ca. 5nm with anatase crystalline structure and a specific surface area of over 200m2g−1. The presence of iodine expanded the photoresponse in visible light range, and led to enrich in surface hydroxyl group on the TiO2surface. Compared with the commercial photocatalyst P25, the I-TNCs significantly enhanced the photocatalytic efficiency in the degradation of rhodamine B and 2,4-dichlorophenol, and the I-TNCs with 2.5mol% doping ratio exhibited the best photocatalytic activity.
