主　　题：ZnSn(OH)6 rutile TiO2 nano-composite photocatalysis 

摘      要：We report the synthesis of TiO2/ZnSn（OH）6 as a novel nano-composite material via a simultaneous crystallization-etching route with cubic nano-ZnSn（OH）6 and TiF4 as the precursors. The structure, composition and morphology of the composite were characterized by XRD, EDS, FETEM and FESEM, which showed the prepared TiO2/ZnSn（OH）6 had a unique morphology of hollow cubic nano-ZnSn（OH）6 attached with rutile TiO2 nanoparticles. The results of photocatalytic activity measurement indicated the photocatalytic activity of the prepared composite was better than that of nano-ZnSn（OH）6. This study may be helpful for the design and fabrication of functional comoosite materials.
