Raman and NMR studies of hydrous sodium titanates

Conference ·
OSTI ID:6479561
Raman and solid state /sup 17/O NMR spectroscopies have been used to determine the molecular structure of amorphous hydrous sodium titanate catalyst support materials prepared by hydrolysis of titanium isopropoxide. Three types of oxygens have been identified: oxygens bridging three titanium atoms, oxygens bridging two titaniums, and non-bridging oxygens. Changes in the relative populations of the different oxygen types have been used to help understand the ion- exchange and polymerization properties of hydrous titanates. 11 refs., 4 figs.
