Description
Titanium ethoxide is used widely as a precursor for the synthesis of Ti4+ ions titania nanoparticles by various techniques such as : in the sol-gel synthesis of free-standing ferroelectric lead zirconate titanate nanoparticles spherical titania cores, produced either by hydrolysis of Ti(IV) ethoxide droplets in contact with water vapor or by preadsorption of the titanium alkoxides into/onto the clay mineral platelets and their subsequent hydrolysis and calcination. ApplicationTitanium(IV) ethoxide can be used:As an activator and dehydrating agent for by condensation of (S)-(+)-p-toluenesulfinamide with aldehydes and ketones to form sulfinimines. As a Ti4+ ion source to form complexes of titanium (IV) acrylate with methacrylic acid. As a catalyst to synthesize esters of sterically hindered alcohols via transesterification reactions
