BaTiO₃ was synthesized at low-temperatures based on the starch gelatinization mechanism. The morphology and phase structure of as-synthesized samples were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscope (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectra (FTIR), UV visible (UV-Vis) absorption spectra, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The piezocatalytic performance of BaTiO₃ was tested targeting a series of typical dyes for degradation. The results showed that tetragonal BaTiO₃ powder was obtained at a calcination temperature of 600 ℃, and the crystallinity gradually increased with the increase in temperature. Cubic-like BaTiO₃ with uniform size distribution was synthesized at a calcination temperature of 700 ℃; The degradation of rhodamine B (RhB), Congo red (CR), and methyl orange (MO) dyes by BaTiO₃ all showed good performance, with reaction rate constants of 1.090×10^-2, 1.113×10^-2, and 1.084×10^-2 min^-1, respectively. Furthermore, the mechanism of piezocatalysis reveals that the hole (h⁺) and superoxide radicals (·O₂^-) are the main reactive species in the degradation process by targeting the degradation of CR.
