Abstract

Anatase microspheres composed of porous single crystals were successfully synthesized via a facile route without preseeding treatment and then further modified using a surface hydrogenation process. The porous materials obtained exhibit excellent photocatalytic activity and good recyclability leading to great potential in practical applications.
