Formation and gelation of titania nanoparticles from AOT reverse micelles

Titania nanoparticles have been produced by the controlled hydrolysis of tetraisopropyltitanate (TPT) in sodium bis(2-ethylhexyl)sulfosuccinate (AOT) reverse micelles. Particle formation and aggregation were investigated by static and dynamic light scattering and the chemical species by vibrational...

Zusammenfassung:Titania nanoparticles have been produced by the controlled hydrolysis of tetraisopropyltitanate (TPT) in sodium bis(2-ethylhexyl)sulfosuccinate (AOT) reverse micelles. Particle formation and aggregation were investigated by static and dynamic light scattering and the chemical species by vibrational spectroscopy.The kinetics of particle formation and aggregation were controlled by varying [H2O]/[AOT] (w0), [H2O]/[Ti(IV)] and [AOT]/[Ti(IV)]. Nanoparticles, with diameters
