A team of material scientists led by Prof. Qi Li from Southwest Jiaotong University in Chengdu, China recently outlined the state of inducing piezoelectricity in distorted rutile TiO 2 for enhanced ...
Titanium dioxide is a multifunctional semiconductor with unique optoelectronic properties, and it is central to technologies such as artificial photosynthesis, perovskite photovoltaics, and ...
Tusker Minerals flags high-grade rutile at Malawi’s Mzimba, with samples up to 1.88% TiO2; XRD confirms rutile dominance, no ilmenite, exploration planned.

Water is ubiquitous in the environment and its interaction with metal oxide surfaces has a key role in processes that range from wetting, dissolution, and corrosion to photocatalytic reactions (1, 2).
The prototypical photocatalyst TiO2 exists in different polymorphs, the most common forms are the anatase- and rutile-crystal structures. Generally, anatase is more active than rutile, but no ...
Under ambient conditions, almost all metals are coated by an oxide. These coatings, the result of a chemical reaction, are not passive. Many of them bind, activate and modify adsorbed molecules, ...
Thermodynamic stability of anatase nanoparticles and their transformation behaviors to rutile phase in an acidic solution was investigated in situ at two different peptization temperatures using a ...
Titanium dioxide (TiO 2) is a popular whitening additive, used in countless white colored commercial products such as paper, plastics, toothpaste, fabrics, and paint. When it is prepared as a powder ...
