Abstract
The monodisperse spherical particles of TiO2 were prepared by sol-gel
process in mixed solvents at low temperature. The TEM, SEM, and size
distribution analysis showed that the size variation of as-synthesized
spherical TiO2 colloidal particles is within 5\% and the polyindex
is 0.013. The thermal analysis clearly demonstrated that assynthesized
particles were hydrous amorphous TiO2. The structure of the TiO2
colloids after annealed at different temperatures were determined
by XRD. The results showed that the phase transition from amorphous
to anatase occurred at a temperature around 600 degrees C and both
rutile and anatase appeared at 900 degrees C.
