Abstract

Titanium dioxide nanoparticles are used for variant applications which can be well chosen by size, thermal and electrical properties. The TiO2 nanoparticles are not new for photo catalytic activity, in degrading organic contaminants and germs, making of cosmetic products and paper industries. Titanium dioxide nanoparticles are prepared by different techniques in which sol gel is most used. The sol-gel synthesis method of nano TiO2 can be through different molar ratio of TTIP: ethanol: distilled water. Characterization of TiO2 nanoparticles are done by x-ray diffraction analysis, UV�Vis spectroscopy, FTIR and FESEM (with EDS). The average crystalline size of TiO2 nanoparticle is obtained value of 4.5 nm by XRD. Surface morphological studies have been concluded from SEM images. FT-IR peaks of Ti-O bond were observed around 630-770 cm-1 for both samples. Electronic energy band gap of TiO2 nanoparticles was observed 3.149 eV and 3.293 eV in respect to one and the other sample. A mixture of both brookite and the small amount of anatase form of TiO2 nanoparticle has been found in the couple of samples nano TiO2. Recent Publications 1.
