PENGARUH PELARUT TERHADAP KARAKTERISTIK NANOPARTIKEL TITANIUM DIOKSIDA (TiO2) ABSTRAK Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk membandingkan jenis pelarut dalam proses pembentukan nanopartikel titanium dioksida dengan metode sol gel. Hasil karakterisasi dengan X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) menunjukkan bahwa penggunaan pelarut berpengaruh terhadap kristalinitas dan fasa material yang terbentuk. Berdasarkan Joint Committee on Powder Diffraction Standards (JCPDS) card nomor 84-1286 menunjukkan difraktogram nano TiO2 hasil sintesis sebagian besar merupakan fasa anatas. Hal ini terlihat dari nilai 2 teta yang diperoleh yaitu 24,45˚; 47,29˚; 53,18˚; 61,64˚ untuk fasa anatas dan 54,65˚; 74,16˚ untuk fasa rutil. Hanya saja persentase fasa anatas pada nano TiO2 menggunakan pelarut metanol lebih besar jika dibandingkan dengan hasil nano TiO2 dengan pelarut etanol. Berdasarkan perhitungan ukuran partikel nano TiO2 menggunakan persamaan Debye- Scherer didapatkan ukuran nano TiO2 menggunakan metanol sebesar 13.78 nm sedangkan  nano TiO2 menggunakan etanol sebesar 34.26 nm.

X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) characterization results indicate that the use of solvent effect on crystallinity and phase material formed. Based Joint Committee on Powder Diffraction Standards (JCPDS) 84-1286 card numbers show diffractogram nano TiO2 synthesized largely a anatas phase. This can be seen from a value of 2 theta obtained by the 24,45˚; 47,29˚; 53,18˚; 61,64˚ to phase anatas and 54,65˚; 74,16˚ for rutile phase. Only a small percentage of the nano TiO2 anatase phase using methanol solvent is greater when compared with the results of nano TiO2 with ethanol. Based on the calculation of nano TiO2 particle size using equation Debye- Scherer obtained nanosized TiO2 using methanol amounted to 13.78 nm while the nano TiO2 using ethanol amounted to 34.26 nm.

Important changes in anatase crystal structure are responsible for the consequent anatase-to-rutile phase transition in titanium dioxide powders. In order to investigate several structural rearrangements occurring in anatase phase obtained by hydrolysis-based method such as Sol-Gel method the X-ray diffraction techniques followed by Rietveld method seems to better approach. Several alterations in anatase lattice parameters can occur by doping insertion and the investigation of isostructural zircon silicate can provide interesting ones. In the present paper, the monitoring of anatase structure reordering and the consequent anatase-to-rutile phase transition along the thermal treatment up to higher temperatures were monitored carrying out DSC and XRD characterizations. The insertion of 6 mol% of zircon silicate leads to the fully anatase stabilization up to 900 °C due the control of ordering process, even that a continuous increasing in anatase tetragonality is present during the entire process. We can conclude the reconstructive anatase-to-rutile phase transition is delayed to very higher temperatures can consequence of more stable cross-linked metal oxide bond in anatase phase.

A series of copper-modified titanium dioxide (Cu/TiO2) nanoparticles were synthesized via one-step sol-gel method. The crystal structure and chemical properties were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The Cu/TiO2nanoparticles were applied to CO2photoconversion and the yield of formaldehyde was used to evaluate the photocatalytic performance. The optimum amount of copper modifying was 0.6 wt.% and the yield of formaldehyde was 946 μmol/gcatunder UV illumination for 6 h. 20 wt.% Cu/TiO2also performed a high photocatalytic activity, which yielded 433 μmol/gcatformaldehyde under UV illumination for 6 h.

Anatase titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TNPs) are synthesized by a simple and cost-effective process with and without freshly water-soluble egg white proteins (albumin) via sol-gel method. The main advantage of using egg white proteins as a gelling agent is that it can provide long-term stability for nanoparticles by preventing particles agglomeration. The X-ray diffraction and FTIR results indicate that the synthesized nanoparticles have only the anatase structure without the presence of any other phase impurities. Additionally, the TNPs are characterized by a number of techniques such as thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and ultraviolet visible spectra (UV-vis). The sizes of titanium dioxide nanoparticles with and without using egg white solution are12.55±3.42 nm and21.45±4.21 nm, respectively. The results indicate that egg white solution is a reliable and cheap green gelling agent that can be used as a matrix in the sol-gel method to synthesis tiny size TNPs.

Titanium dioxide nanoparticles were prepared by precipitation of aqueous TiCl 4 solution with ammonium hydroxide as precipitation agent. Freshly prepared Titania gel is allowed to crystallize under refluxing and stirring condition for 6 h over 90°C and oven dried over night in temperature above 100 C. X-ray diffraction studies on oven dried powder indicate formation of anatase phase TiO 2 with average crystalline size of 4.5 nm. Powders with variable amount of anatase and rutile phase were prepared by calcination of pure anatase in the temperature range 400-1000 c for 4 h. the XRD patterns show that phase transition from anatase to rutile occur in calcination above 600°C. The morphology and microstructure characteristics were obtained by XRD, TEM. and TGA.

TiO2 and iron-doped TiO2 were synthesized by sol-gel method. TiO2 and 0.5 %mol Fe:TiO2 were calcined at 500 and 800 °C for 3 h. The synthesized particles were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), UV-VIS diffuse reflectance spectrophotometry (UV/DRS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and scanning electron microscope-energy dispersive X-Ray analysis (SEM-EDX). The XRD patterns of all samples that were calcined at 500 °C showed only anatase phase. On increasing temperature from 500 to 800 °C, the anatase phase transformed to rutile phase. For 0.5 %mol Fe:TiO2, pseudobrookite (Fe2TiO5) phase was observed at 800 °C. The particles that contained rutile showed higher antibacterial activities against E.coli, B. subtilis, and S. aureus than anatase phase, under fluorescent irradiation.

Titania matrices prepared by a sol-gel technique were doped with several cations (La, Zn, Al, K, Na, Ca, Ba, and Co). The effect of the dopants on the thermal and structural properties of the materials is analyzed. The dopant concentration was 2% mol with respect to titanium, and in all cases the same anion (nitrate) was used. The transition temperatures from amorphous to anatase and from anatase to rutile were measured using x-ray diffraction. The amorphous-anatase transition is independent, for almost all samples, of the type of dopant used; however, the anatase-to-rutile phase transition depends strongly on the kind of cation. This means that the temperature range where the anatase phase exists can be controlled by choosing the appropriate dopant. We have found a correlation between the anatase-rutile phase transition temperature and the radius of the cations and their electric charge.

TiO2 nanoparticles have been successfully synthesized using the sol-gel method with main materials of titanium tetraisopropoxide (TTIP) and HClO4 solutions. Mass ratios (Rw) of aquadest and TTIP were 0.85, 2.00, and 3.50 which were going to be investigated in crystallization of TiO2 phases. Pre-heating was performed on TiO2 at 60°C for one day then it was annealed at 150°C for 3 hours. The DSSC structure was formed by using the synthesized-TiO2 as semiconductor material and beta-carotene as dye sensitizer. The x-ray diffraction (XRD) spectrum indicated that TiO2 peaks had anatase phases on crystal orientation of (101), (004), and (200) while TiO2 of rutile phase only appeared on orientation of (211). The highest intensity for all Rw was dominated by (101) anatase phase. From XRD spectrum data of (101) peak, the Scherrer’s method predicted that crystal size of TiO2 was 3.48 nm, 4.36 nm, and 4.47 nm for Rw of 0.85, 2.00, and 3.50, respectively. The Tauc’s method was applied on the UV-Vis data that predicted the bandgap energy (Eg) of TiO2 for Rw of 2.00 (Eg=3.14 eV) was higher than Rw of 0.85 (Eg=3.02 eV) and 3.50 (Eg=3.04 eV). The I-V characteristic calculation of DSSC structures were obtained that the efficiency optimum is 0.01% for Rw of 2.00. It is considered that bandgap energy value correlated to stability of Ti-OH bonds that caused the exited-electrons are easily injected to conduction band of TiO2. The performance of DSSC using the synthesized-TiO2 which consists of anatase and rutile can be improved about ten times compared to that using the pure-TiO2 rutile.

TiO2/tourmaline composite photocatalyst was prepared by sol-gel method using tetrabutyl orthotitanate (Ti (OC4H9)4) as a precursor. As a comparison, pure TiO2 was prepared at the same experimental conditons without the addition of tourmaline. The obtained composite photocatalyst was characterized by X-Ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscope (SEM) and its photocatalytic activity was also investigated through the photodiscoloration of methyl orange (MO) under UV irradiation. The XRD results indicated that, in the composite photocatalyst, TiO2 existed in the form of anatase and rutile, with the sintering temperature and tourmaline content increasing, the anatase phase trended to the transformation to rutile phase. The SEM results revealed that the nanosized particles of TiO2 were well dispersed and immobilized on the surface of tourmaline, especially for the sample with 2% tourmaline content. Compared with pure TiO2, the composite photocatalyst exhibited a higher photocatalytic activity. When the pure TiO2 was used as the photocatalyst, the MO discoloration ratio only reached 55%. However, the MO discoloration ratio could approach 100% in presence of TiO2/tourmaline composit photocatalyst under the same conditions. The effects of tourmaline content and sintering temperature on the photocatalytic activity of the composite were studied in this work and the results suggested that the sample with 2% tourmaline content and sintered at the temperature of 550°C exhibited the best photocatalytic activity. Finally, the possible mechanism for the photodiscoloration of MO was put forward.

Simple sol-gel route was used to synthesis the TiO2 nanoparticles and examined by X-ray diffraction (XRD). The small particle size and uniform morphology of the TiO2 were found at different calcination temperatures. The kinetic study of phase changes from the anatase to rutile using the X-ray diffraction data with Avrami equation was investigated. The transformation of anatase to rutile was started after 500 °C and above by decreasing of XRD peaks intensity of anatase with rutile increased. The activation energy of the rutile phase was found lower which indicated that uniform shape and morphology of TiO2 nanoparticles. At same time, changes of activation energy value depended on the experimental conditions was observed.

AbstractNanocrystalline anatase titanium dioxide films were successfully produced on cotton fabrics from alkoxide solutions under ambient pressure using the low temperature sol-gel process. At a temperature as low as 40°C, only anatase phase formed from X-ray diffraction spectroscopy (XRD). Field scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) images show the formation of uniform continuous films of titanium dioxide on cotton fabrics. The self-cleaning properties of these fabrics were evaluated by measuring anti-bacterial activities and the decomposition of a colorant Neolan Blue 2G. The results indicated that anatase treated cotton fabrics exhibited good self-cleaning performance.
