Synthesis of Titanium Dioxide Nanoparticles

Abstract

Different techniques such as hydrothermal, co-precipitation, chemical vapour deposition, microemulsion and sol-gel among others have been used for the synthesis of titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiO2-NPs). Among these, the sol-gel synthesis is a promising method because of its mild experimental conditions. This review summarized this commonly used technique (sol-gel) and other steps via this, for the synthesis of TiO2-NPs and also facile factors which include pH and calcination temperature that affect synthesized TiO2 nanoparticles. It was found that these factors affect the agglomeration of titanium nanoparticles
