Sol-gel synthesis and characterization of TiO2 powder
Abstract
In the present study, TiO2
powder having the tetragonal crystal without any impurity was easily
synthesized by sol-gel method, and its characterization was done by X-ray
diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive
X-ray (EDX) spectroscopy. The crystallinity degree was found to be of 89.0%. A
flaky morphology was observed.
