Facile Fabrication of Sodium Titanate Nanostructures Using Metatitanic Acid (TiO2·H2O)‎ and Its Adsorption Property

الملخص EN

Fluffy sodium titanate nanostructures have been fabricated by a simple hydrothermal method with metatitanic acid as precursor.

The obtained nanostructures exhibit as the aggregation of nanosheets, and the surface area of the nanostructure is about 110.59 m2/g.

Such nanoarchitecture indicates high adsorption capacity to some metal ions, such as Cd2+, and the maximum adsorption capacity has been estimated to be 255.18 mg/g.

The possible reasons that are responsible after its high adsorption ability, have been ascribed to the tiny structure, the ion-exchange ability and the large surface area of the sodium titanate nanostructures.

And this may greatly enlarge its application potential as an adsorbent.
