Abstract EN
In this work, TiO2 nanocrystals were synthesized by the sol-gel method.
These materials were annealed at 200 and 500∘C; and characterized by the XRD-Rietveld refinement; and by BET and TEM.
As for the low-temperature-treated sample (200∘C), nanocrystals with small crystallite sizes (7 nm) and high abundance of anatase, coexisting with the brookite phase, were obtained.
Meanwhile, the sample annealed at 500∘C showed an increased crystallite size (22 nm) and an important polymorphic increment.
The sample annealed at 200∘C showed a high activity in the photocatalytic decomposition of acetaldehyde.
