Strontium titanates were prepared with different morphologies by varying the ratio of solvents used during the synthesis. The effects of morphology and solvent (ethylene glycol to water) ratio were investigated both on the structure and photocatalytic activity of the samples. Structural properties were determined by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, diffuse reflectance spectroscopy, and nitrogen adsorption measurements. The photocatalytic activity of the samples was evaluated by the photocatalytic oxidation of phenol and by the photocatalytic reduction of carbon dioxide. The ratio of solvents notably influenced the morphology, strontium carbonate content, primary crystallite size, and specific surface area of the samples. Samples prepared at low ethylene glycol to water ratios were spherical, while the ones prepared at high ethylene glycol to water ratios could be characterized predominantly by lamellar morphology. The former samples were found to have the highest efficiency for phenol degradation, while the sample with the most well-defined lamellar morphology proved to be the best for CO2 reduction.
