Notes:
Fourier transform infrared analysis, nuclear magnetic resonance, and thermogravimetric analysis show that most of the solid product prepared from the reaction of Ti(OC4H9)4 and excess (CH3CO)2O is a mixture of titanyl organic compounds. Nanocrystalline TiO2 particles, which include anatase TiO2, rutile TiO2, and a mixture of anatase and rutile, can be obtained from hydrolysis of the titanyl organic compounds under normal pressure at 60°C. The particle size, shape, and formation process of the crystals have been studied using X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy. The specific-surface-area data for a rutile TiO2 sample and the powders obtained after calcination at different temperatures have been measured by the Brunauer–Emmett–Teller method.
