Abstract

Different shapes and phases of titania nanostructures with the uniform size distribution were synthesized by hydrothermal sol–gel technique. The influence of annealing temperature on the crystalline character, size and phase of the prepared nanomaterials were evidenced from the diffraction analysis. Infrared spectroscopic analysis ensured the structural confirmation of the sulfated titania nanostructures. Catalytic activity of the synthesized ...
