Review of the anatase to rutile phase transformation

Dorian Hanaor, Charles C. Sorrell · 7 Dec 2010

Titanium dioxide, TiO2, is an important photocatalytic material that exists as two main polymorphs, anatase and rutile. The presence of either or both of these phases impacts on the photocatalytic performance of the material. The present work reviews the anatase to rutile phase transformation. The synthesis and properties of anatase and rutile are examined, followed…
