- Abstract
Hydrothermal treatment of a series of water-soluble titanium complexes resulted in the formation of TiO2. Rutile, anatase or a mixture of both can be synthesized by varying the ligands. The titania obtained was composed of nano-sized particles with large specific surface areas. These TiO2 powders exhibited high photocatalytic activity for NO x decomposition. In particular, they demonstrated higher activity than P25 (Degussa) under visible-light irradiation.
