Characterization of Nanostructured Titania and Titanate Materials Synthesized by Simple Hydrothermal Method

摘要

In this research, the effect of different hydrothermal treatment temperature (100, 150, and 200 °C) on the products obtained by hydrothermal method was studied. Various characterization techniques was carried out such as X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM), energy dispersive of x-ray spectroscopy (EDX) and fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). XRD analysis shows that titanate phase was formed at 150 and 200 °C hydrothermal treatment. On the other hand, at 100 °C anatase TiO_2 phase structured was gained which is similar with the TiO_2 precursor. Morphological study using FESEM revealed that nanofibers and nanorods samples obtained at 150 °C and 200 °C, respectively. At 100°C, irregular shaped particle was attained similar with TiO_2 precursors. FTIR spectra for the all studied sample displayed three main broad peaks at the range of 3700-2800, and 1800-1400 assigned to -OH stretching and deformation mode due to H_2O molecules and M-O stretching mode at 900-400 cm~(-1) assigned to Ti-O bond.
