Rutile-type dense ceramics fabricated by pressureless sintering of Ti1−xRuxO2 powders prepared by sol–gel

Study on properties of simul wood (Bombax ceiba L.) impregnated with styrene acrylonitrile copolymer, TiO2, and nanoclay

“…In the spectra of SAN-TiO 2 treated wood composites (curve 2c), the characteristic peaks for wood, SAN, and TiO 2 were observed. The peaks at 1456, 1253, and 1050 cm -1 were for Ti-O-C stretch vibrations [32], while the peak at 550 cm -1 was for Ti-O-Ti stretch vibration. The wide band observed in the frequency range of 800-500 cm -1 was the characteristic band of TiO 2 [33].…”

Catalyst supports for polymer electrolyte fuel cells

“…It is known that rutile (TiO 2 ) can be doped with other cations to prepare Ti 1−x M x O 2 , where M = Zr, Hf, V, Nb, Ta, Cr, Mo, W, Ru, Os, Ir and Sn, and some of these oxides have been evaluated in electrochemical environments (Chang 1968;Sakata et al 1969;Horkans & Shafer 1977;Pejryd 1986;Smith et al 1998;Murata et al 2000;Roy et al 2000;Chen et al 2003;Colomer & Velasco 2007;Garcia et al 2007;Sasaki et al 2008). In this paper, we discuss the preparation and properties of W-doped TiO 2 (rutile phase: Ti 1−x W x O 2 ) and explore the preparation and use of 50 nm nanoparticles suitable for catalyst supports.…”

Electrochemical study on the corrosion behavior of Ti3SiC2 in 3.5% NaCl solution

“…For electrochemical corrosion or even electro oxidation conditions, for example, in marine environment or wastewater treatment environment, titanium and its alloys are always mentioned and widely applied because of their excellent corrosion resistance due to a very stable oxide lm forming on the metal surface. 1 Titanium based electrodes, such as TiO 2 -RuO 2 -Ti, [2][3][4] are also widely used in electrochemical engineering, such as in solar energy applications, chlorine production and electrolytic hydrogen production, because of its unique surface catalytic effect and stability. Recently, a new type of ternary layered conductive ceramic, Ti 3 SiC 2 , was found to be highly stable in concentrated hydrochloric acid solution and exhibited high catalytic activity for hydrogen evolution.…”
