Abstract:A set of flame-hydrolytic TiO 2 samples was synthesized. Via systematically increasing the precursor (TiCl 4 ) feeding rate to the flame, nanocrystalline TiO 2 specimens with practically identical bulk structural properties (that is: particle size, anatase-to-rutile ratio, specific surface area) were obtained. However, it has been observed that with increasing precursor feed rate, the fraction of the polyhedral particles increased in the products at the expense of the spherical ones. In our previous work, we a… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
