Sonochemical synthesis and microstructure investigation of rod-like nanocrystalline rutile titania

Synthesis and phase transformation of TiO2 nano-crystals in aqueous solutions

“…1). 19) The direction of the chains is the same as c-axis direction. 18) Crystal growth along the c-axis is kinetically favorable compared to other crystal directions, thus rutile grew along the c-axis to form acicular ellipse shapes.…”

Ultrasound-assisted preparation of titania–alumina support with high surface area and large pore diameter by modified precipitation method

“…The sonochemical processing has been developed to be a useful technique for the nanomaterial preparation [11][12][13][14][15][16][17]. Many nanomaterials such as TiO 2 [18,19], WO 3 [20], MoS 2 [21], Fe 2 O 3 [22,23] and Al 2 O 3 [24] have been prepared using this process.…”

Fabrication of rutile rod-like particle by hydrothermal method: an insight into HNO3 peptization

“…Synthesis of rutile rod-like particles involves hydrothermally or sonochemically treating the titanium chloride or titanium alkoxide under acid environment [6][7][8]. Hydrothermal technique has been widely used to prepare highly nanocrystalline TiO 2 particles at low temperatures [9][10][11][12].…”
