Preparation of nanosized crystalline TiO2 particles at low temperature for photocatalysis
Source abstract
Abstract
Nanocrystalline titanium dioxide (TiO2) particles were prepared by a modified alkoxide method under acidic conditions at temperatures ranging from 60°C to 90°C. The reaction temperature was used to control the crystalline phase of the TiO2 particles. At 60°C and 75°C rutile was formed whilst at 90°C anatase and brookite were formed.
