General description

Our titanium(IV) oxide, anatase nanopowder is a fine white powder composed of titanium dioxide nanoparticles with a particle size less than 25 nm. Anatase is a metastable polymorph of TiO2, which is less hard and less dense than the rutile polymorph. Optically, anatase nanopowder has a lower refractive index, absorbs less UV light, and exhibits greater photocatalytic activity than the rutile polymorph. Consequently, anatase is often preferred in applications where photocatalytic activity is desired, such as self-cleaning surfaces and solar cells.

Application

Titania paste may be used as a transparent coating for self cleaning glass.[1]Low optical scattering titania-acrylate nanocomposites have been reported.[2] Metal contacts in solar cells based on titanium dioxide and di-(isothiocyanate)-bis-(2,2′-bipyridyl-4,4′-dicarboxylate)ruthenium(II) have been studied.[3]

Questions

1–10 of 11 Questions  
  1. Is this product a high-purity anatase phase TiO2 or Is it possible that the rutile phase is also included?

    1 answer
    1. This is a high purity anatase phase. There should not be rutile phase present.

  2. How is shipping temperature determined? And how is it related to the product storage temperature?

    1 answer
    1. Products may be shipped at a different temperature than the recommended long-term storage temperature. If the product quality is sensitive to short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped on wet or dry-ice. If the product quality is NOT affected by short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped at ambient temperature. As shipping routes are configured for minimum transit times, shipping at ambient temperature helps control shipping costs for our customers. For more information, please refer to the Storage and Transport Conditions document: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/deepweb/assets/sigmaaldrich/marketing/global/documents/316/622/storage-transport-conditions-mk.pdf

  3. How can I determine the shelf life / expiration / retest date of this product?

    1 answer
    1. If this product has an expiration or retest date, it will be shown on the Certificate of Analysis (COA, CofA). If there is no retest or expiration date listed on the product's COA, we do not have suitable stability data to determine a shelf life. For these products, the only date on the COA will be the release date; a retest, expiration, or use-by-date will not be displayed.
      For all products, we recommend handling per defined conditions as printed in our product literature and website product descriptions. We recommend that products should be routinely inspected by customers to ensure they perform as expected.
      For products without retest or expiration dates, our standard warranty of 1 year from the date of shipment is applicable.

  4. Are the NP silanized? Do they need to be activated by UV for antimicrobial property?

    1 answer
    1. This product is packaged in glass vials and will not be salinized. Titanium (IV) oxide nanopowder has been proved to be the most active photocatalytic semiconductor under ultraviolet radiation. Ultraviolet (UV) light-mediated activation of titanium dioxide (TiO2) cleans the surface microenvironment through photocatalysis.
