Abstract
We have studied the effect of aging conditions on the properties of titania hydrosols produced via ultrasonic processing and containing aggregates of 5-nm-diameter amorphous particles. The results demonstrate that, at room-temperature, 0.44 M to 0.11 M hydrosols are stable for 3 to 22 days. During aging for 40 to 45 days, the properties of 0.01 M to 0.0025 M hydrosols remain unchanged. Aging for a longer time causes the amorphous particles to crystallize in the anatase structure. Raising the temperature to 75°C reduces the induction time to 3–4 h.
