A. Espina et al., REACTIVITY OF ALPHA-TITANIUM PHOSPHATE N-ALKYLAMINE INTERCALATION COMPOUNDS WITH MONOMERIC AND POLYMERIC ALUMINUM SPECIES, Materials chemistry and physics, 35(3-4), 1993, pp. 250-256
The reaction of Al(H2O)63+ and [Al13O4(OH)24(H2O)12]7 with alpha-Ti(PO
4)2 . 2RNH3-H2O (R = C3H7, C4H9) has been investigated. The processes
can be considered as RNH3+/Al(H2O)63+ or RNH3+/[Al13O4(OH)24(H2O)12]7 ion exchange. With Al(H2O)63+, saturation is reached and an alpha-Ti[
Al(H2O)6]2/3(PO4)2 . nH2O phase is formed. With [Al13O4(OH)24(H2O)12]7
+, materials were obtained with the highest aluminum content, having t
he formula alpha-Ti[Al13O4(OH)24(H2O)12]x(PO4)2 . (2 - 7x)RNH3 . nH2O
(x = 0.20, R = C3H7; x = 0.14, R = C4H9). These compounds maintain ion
-exchange properties. The porosity of the materials obtained is discus
sed.
