Synthesis of titanosilicate zeolite from bulk titania via mechanochemical route
An easy and highly reproducible synthesis method for titanosilicate zeolites has been developed, which can use bulk titania and silica as source materials. In this method, a uniform silica-titania composite is prepared from titania and silica powders by the solid-phase mechanochemical reaction and converted into a titanosilicate zeolite by the succeeding hydrothermal treatment.
