Transient electric birefringence measurements are used to show that brookite titania nanorods dispersed in the apolar liquid butylbenzene possess a large permanent dipole moment of 516 debye (rod length: 39 nm, diameter: 4.1 nm). This dipole moment makes

DFT study of TiO2 brookite (210) surface doped with silver and molybdenum
The most popular semiconductor in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) is titanium dioxide (TiO _2 ) because of its low cost, non-toxicity, and good stability.

BACKGROUND Rutile, anatase and brookite are TiO2 polymorphs. In the rutile in-situ U-Pb dating, rutile was determined primarily on electron microprobe data and cathodoluminescence images, while these methods sometimes could not effectively distinguish ...

Stable hydrosols for TiO2 coatings [PDF]
The optimum processing parameters required to synthesize, by hydrolysis of titanium isopropoxide (TIP), highly stable hydrosols composed of nanoparticles of the smallest possible size, are deduced both from data available in literature and from our own ...

Synthesis of Pure Brookite Nanorods in a Nonaqueous Growth Environment
Brookite TiO2 is the most difficult TiO2 polymorph to synthesize. The available methods in the literature to produce brookite nanostructures mostly use water-based techniques for the preparation of water-soluble Ti complexes first, followed by a ...

Brookite: Nothing New under the Sun? [PDF]
Advances in the synthesis of pure brookite and brookite-based TiO2 materials have opened the way to fundamental and applicative studies of the once least known TiO2 polymorph. Brookite is now recognized as an active phase, in some cases showing enhanced performance with respect to anatase, rutile or their mixture.

Photocatalytic oxidation of methyl tert-butyl ether in presence of various phase compositions of TiO2 [PDF]
MTBE (methyl tert-butyl ether) represents a rising threat to the environment, especially drinking water, and its effective removal (with all by-products) is necessary.

Improvement of photocatalytic activity of brookite titanium dioxide nanorods by surface modification using chemical etching [PDF]
Surface morphology of brookite titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanorods was modified by chemical etching with aqueous hydrogen (H2O2)–ammonia (NH3) or sulfuric acid (H2SO4) solution.
