Titania nanotubes with high photo-catalytic activity were synthesized in laurylamine hydrochloride / tetraisopropyl orthotitanate modified with acetylacetone system. Formation of nanotubes was confirmed by transmission electron microscope images. These titania nanotubes had crystal structure of anatase and showed high photo-catalytic activity, i.e., the activity is about three times higher than Degussa-P-25 and higher than ST-01.
