Abstract

Anatase titanium dioxide nanotubes were prepared by hydrothermal synthesis with subsequent annealing in a nitrogen atmosphere. The outer diameter of particles is 10–15 nm, their inner diameter is 4–6 nm, and their length is several hundreds of nanometers. The structural transformation of polytitanic acid to TiO2, which preserves the tubular morphology until 500°C, was studied by X-ray powder diffraction and thermal analyses, scanning and transmission electron microscopies, and IR and Raman spectroscopies.
