Synthesis and characterization of high surface area TiO2/SiO2 mesostructured nanocomposite

Résumé

Recently titania synthesis was reported using various structuration procedures, leading to the production of solid presenting high surface area but exhibiting moderate thermal stability. The study presents the synthesis of TiO 2 /SiO 2 nanocomposites, a solid that can advantageously replace bulk titania samples as catalyst support. The silica host support used for the synthesis of the nanocomposite is a SBA-15 type silica, having a well-defined 2D hexagonal pore structure and a large pore size. The control of the impregnation media is important to obtain dispersed titania crystals into the porosity, the best results have been obtained using an impregnation in an excess of solvent. After calcination at low temperature (400 C), nanocomposites having titania nanodomains (w2-3 nm) located inside the pores and no external aggregates visible are obtained. This nanocomposite exhibits high specific surface area (close to that of the silica host support, even with a titania loading of 55 wt.%) and a narrow pore size distribution. Surprisingly, the increase in calcination temperature up to 800 C does not allow to detect the anatase to rutile transition. Even at 800 C, the hexagonal mesoporous structure of the silica support is maintained, and the anatase crystal domain size is evaluated at w10 nm, a size close to that of the silica host support porosity (8.4 nm). Comparison of their physical properties with the results presented in literature for bulk samples evidenced that these TiO 2 /SiO 2 solids are promising in term of thermal stability.
