Abstract

TiO2 nanocrystalline powder was synthesized by homogeneous precipitation method using urea, and its characteristics were investigated through comparison with the powder prepared by conventional precipitation using ammonia. The homogeneously precipitated powder was anatase-type TiO2 with a particle size of 4–5 nm and a uniform spherical particle shape. The fact that the transformation from anatase to rutile was prohibited at elevated temperatures in the homogeneously precipitated powder can be useful to prepare anatase-type TiO2 thin films by calcination at high temperatures. With increasing heat-treatment temperature, the particle size of the homogeneously precipitated powder was smaller than that of the conventionally precipitated powder, and the particle shape was more uniform. The homogeneously precipitated powder showed good photocatalytic activity for Ag ion photoadsorption because the powder had both good crystallinity and a large specific surface area of 280 m2/g.
