Synthesis of mesoporous rutile TiO 2

A mesoporous rutile phase was prepared using stearic acid as a template from aqueous TiOCl 2 solution by heating on hot water bath. Subsequently, the template was removed by calcining at 673 K. These powders are characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and sur...

Summary:A mesoporous rutile phase was prepared using stearic acid as a template from aqueous TiOCl 2 solution by heating on hot water bath. Subsequently, the template was removed by calcining at 673 K. These powders are characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and surface area measurements (BET method).
