The spin-coating process was used to create the TiO2 layer successfully. The TiO2 film was created by dissolving TiO2 nanopowder in terpineol and ethylcellulose, and then spin coating it onto the corning glass. The films' shape, phase, and optical properties were then determined using SEM, XRD, and UV-Vis. Photocatalytic measurements of TiO2 films were performed using a UV lamp to irradiate a 12 mg/l methylene blue solution for 5 hours. According to the results, all TiO2 films feature an anatase phase with crystallite size values ranging from 5.55 nm to 6.94 nm and an absorbance region near the UV range. The best photocatalytic activity was found in a film containing TiO2 particles that had been stirred for 5 hours with the value of constant rate of discoloration dye 0.0032/min. © 2024, Ivan Franko National University of Lviv.
