PROCESS FOR THE PREPARATION OF TITANIUM DIOXIDE HAVING NANOMETRIC DIMENSIONS AND CONTROLLED SHAPE

摘要

The present invention relates to a process for the preparation of materials with nanometric dimensions and con trolled shape, based on titanium dioxide. The invention also relates to a process for the preparation of titanium dioxide nanorods and nanocubes with anatase phase composition, which are highly suitable for photocatalytic use, in particular for applications in volving photovoltaic cells, for example Dye Sensitized Solar Cells (DSSC), photoelectrolysis cells and tandem cells for the con version of solar energy and the production of hydrogen.
