Abstract

Mesoporous anatase TiO2 nanopowder was synthesised by the sol–gel method using ultrasonic irradiation. This method is simple and faster for the synthesis of phase pure mesoporous anatase TiO2 nanopowder. The product is characterised by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron spectroscopy (TEM), thermo gravimetric analysis, Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) surface area, UV–visible diffuse reflectance spectroscopy and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Analysis of XRD patterns, SEM and TEM image shows that the average particles size is of 19.9 nm and has an anatase structure. The mesoporous nature was determined by the BET method using the Barrett–Joyner–Halenda (BJH) model.
