Herein, anatase TiO₂ nanoparticles with co-exposed {101}/[111]-facets (ethanoic acid-TiO₂ and no control agent-TiO₂, namely HAc-TiO₂ and NO-TiO₂) and co-exposed {101}/{010}/[111]-facets (formic acid-TiO₂ and hydrofluoric acid-TiO₂, namely FA-TiO₂ and HF-TiO₂) were prepared by a mild solvothermal method using tetrabutyl titanate as titanium source. The crystal structure, morphology, specific surface area, pore size distribution, optical properties, transformation and recombination of charge carriers (electron and hole) of the samples were characterized. The photocatalytic performance and cycling performance of the samples were also evaluated. The results showed that as-prepared HF-TiO₂ with co-exposed {101}/{010}/[111]-facets exhibited the highest photocatalytic activity in the process of photocatalytic degradation of rhodamine B solution (or p-nitrophenol solution), and its degradation efficiency was 97.35% (or 68.57%), which was 1.06 times (or 1.09 times), 1.18 times (or 1.14 times), 1.35 times (or 2.33 times) and 4.88 times (or 5.80 times) of FA-TiO₂, HAc-TiO₂, BD-TiO₂ and NO-TiO₂, respectively. The highest photocatalytic activity of HF-TiO₂ could be attributed to the synergistic effect of the maximum crystallinity, larger surface energy, superior surface atomic structure and surface electronic structure, lowest photoluminescence intensity, fastest charge transfer rate and minimum carrier recombination rate.
