Ga. Zenkovets et al., SO42-/TiO2 (anatase): Some peculiarities of the structure formation duringthermal treatment, KINET CATAL, 40(4), 1999, pp. 562-566
Specific features of the formation of the titanium dioxide structure doped
by sulfate ions are studied. Sulfate ions and water molecules enter the ana
tase structure to form the fragments of the titanyl sulfate type. This resu
lts in a significant decrease in the lattice parameter c, the disturbance o
f the cation distribution, and the appearance of microdistortions in the st
ructure.
