ONE-DIMENSIONAL TITANATE NANOSTRUCTURES: AND CHARA CTERISATION

One-dimensional (1D) nanostructured titania-based were synthesised by hydrothermal processing at C in high ly alkaline conditions. The was limited to the early stages of the formation the 1D nanostructures duri ng the hydrothermal of the titania hydrous gel and included the with the common preparation techniq ue from TiO2 The formation of 1D nanostructures f rom titania gel containing Pb during the hydrotherma l was also investigated. The layered titanates (Na and 1D nanostructures were formed from the titan hydrous gel. The process was faster than the techn ique in which TiO2 particles are treated unde r the same conditions. The addition Pb-acetate to titania hydrous gel accelerated the process of thin layer s and 1D nanostructures. the obtained sheets were a morphous with PbO/TiO2 nanometre-sized particles attached to them. In system, the 1D nanostructures wer e formed by of the sheets.
