| Abstract: | ABSTRACTNanotechnology is all about making products from very small constituents, components or subsystems to gain greatly enhanced material properties and functionality. Nanocrystalline anatase TiO2 was prepared by a facile sol–gel route at a temperature of 50°C under mild conditions. Titanium tetraisopropoxide (TTIP) was used as a titanium precursor, and 2-propanol was used as a solvent. XRD, TEM, SEM, FT-IR and BET were applied to characterize the crystal phase. The Crystalline size of TiO2 powder has been obtained with diameter < 30 nm for anatase at 500°C using an acid. |
