Rutile TiO2 Submicroboxes with Superior Lithium Storage Properties

Hollow structures of rutile TiO₂, and especially with non‐spherical shape, have rarely been reported. Herein, high‐quality rutile TiO₂ submicroboxes have been synthesized by a facile templating method using Fe₂O₃ submicrocubes as removable templates. Compared to other rutile TiO₂ nanomaterials, the as‐prepared rutile TiO₂ submicroboxes manifest superior lithium storage properties in terms of high specific capacity, long‐term cycling stability, and excellent rate capability.     

LATTICE DEFORMATION AND PHASE TRANSFORMATION FROM NANO-SCALE ANATASE TO NANO-SCALE RUTILE TiO_2 PREPARED BY A SOL-GEL TECHNIQUE

1. Introduction Titania TiO2 is a polymorphic oxide, inclusive of two common polymorphs: anatase (space group I41/amd, a0=0.37852 nm, c0=0.95139 nm) and rutile (space group P42/mnm, a0=0.45933 nm, c0=0.29592 nm) , both with octahedrally coordinated tetragonal structures. Anatase is a metastable structure and readily transforms to the stable morphic rutile upon heating (Gribb & Banfield, 1997). Because of their wide application in ceramics, catalysis, electronics, sensors and electrodes, they…     

Influence of the OH groups of hydroxylated rutile (110) surface on the Lewis acidity: an investigation of CO adsorption by quantum-mechanical simulations

The adsorption of carbon monoxide on a clean and hydroxylated rutile (110) surface has been investigated using a periodic approach at DFT/B3LYP level. The hydroxylated surface was modelled by considering both terminal and bridging OH groups. The variation of the electrophilicity of the Lewis acid site near these groups was evaluated by taking into account the adsorbate–substrate distance, the magnitude of the interaction energy and the blue-shift of the adsorbed CO stretching frequency. The results obtained suggest that the electrophilicity increases in proximity to OH terminal groups, and decreases near the OH bridging groups.     

Surface properties and catalytic activity of sulfated rutile

The present work reports an investigation of physico-chemical properties and catalytic activity of the pure, sulfated and iron containing sulfated rutile. The catalysts were characterized by X-ray Diffraction, FT-IR, BET surface area, TG and NH₃-TPD measurements. The catalytic activity of the prepared catalysts towards liquid phase Friedel-Crafts alkylation of toluene with benzyl chloride was tested. This revised version was published online in June 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Spectroscopic study of polycrystalline TiO2 doped with vanadium

The structure of coordination sites (V⁴⁺ ions) and their spatial distribution in the polycrystalline titanium dioxide (rutile) lattice were studied by ESR. It was found that at low degrees of doping, at [V⁴⁺] < 0.5 at.%, the vanadium ions are isotropically distributed in the rutile lattice. At [V⁴⁺] > 0.5 at.% a new microphase with the mixed composition {TiO₂—VO²} is formed. The mixed microphase has a noticeably narrower band gap than the initial TiO₂. Comparison of the photocurrent spectra and the plots of the integral photocurrent vs. vanadium content with the structural data obtained using ESR spectroscopy showed that the formation of the {TiO₂—VO²} microphases deteriorates the photoelectrochemical properties of the modified photoelectrodes. Synthetic procedures interfering the formation of such microphases in the doped rutile are discussed.     

Conducting polyaniline-rutile TiO2 nanocomposites for the development of high-k dielectric materials

Inorganic dielectrics encapsulated in an organic matrix are showing excellent promise as novel dielectric materials. In this work, firstly highly organized crystalline nanoparticles of rutile TiO₂ were synthesized by acid hydrolysis of titanium isopropoxide at room temperature. Then we developed a novel dielectric material consisting of highly organized rutile TiO₂/polyaniline (PAni) nanocomposites by in-situ chemical oxidative polymerization. The structural, morphological, conducting, and dielectric properties of the rutile TiO₂/PAni nanoparticles have been evaluated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), high resolution-transmission emission microscopy (HR-TEM), four-point probe technique, CV (Capacitance versus Voltage), and Impedance analyzer. The nanocomposites show 70 times higher permittivity compared to rutile nanoparticles and much higher compared to anatase/PAni (ES) nanocomposites at 10 MHz. Large interfacial polarizations, nanostructure, and dopant levels are the key factors for the large dielectric constant of the nanocomposites. The rutile/PAni (ES) nanocomposites might see potential uses in super-capacitors, gate dielectric in transistors, and capacitive-type gas sensors.
