The inhibitory effect of phosphate on the crystal grain growth of nanosized titania during high temperature calcination was investigated. Nanosized titanium dioxide powders prepared by hydrolysis of titanium tetrachloride were soaked in phosphate solutions with different concentrations. The obtained powders calcined at various temperatures were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and X-ray photoelectronic spectroscopy (XPS). The grain size of the samples without phosphate treatment increased quickly when calcined at high temperatures, while the grain size of the samples with phosphate modification increased slowly when calcined at the same temperature. This phenomenon implies that phosphate treatment plays an important role in inhibiting the crystal grain growth of titania. The possible mechanism of the inhibition effect of phosphate on titania is discussed.
以Ferrihydrite(又称水合氧化铁hydrous iron oxide)为反应前驱物,Fe(II)为催化剂,在微量Na2SiO3存在下,控制pH=6~9范围内合成出了亚微米级纺锤形和准立方形α-Fe2O3微粒.研究了初始pH,Na2SiO3浓度,Ferrihydrite老化方式对相转化时间和产物形貌的影响,利用XRD,SEM等手段对产物进行了表征.结果表明,Na2SiO3对Ferriihydrite催化相转化有一定的抑制作用,是影响其相转化过程及产物形貌的关键.在弱碱性条件下,[Si]/[Fe3+]为0.01时可直接获得纺锤形(轴比≥2)或准立方形(300~400nm)α-Fe2O3粒子,并对形成机理进行了初步讨论.
