| Abstract | This work describes the application of microwave plasma synthesis technology to prepare TiO2 nano powder using oxygen as plasma forming gas as well as carrier gas. The powder thus produced is characterized by means of (1) SEM (scanning electron microscopy) (2) XRD (3) BET surface area test. The average particle size is determined to be around 60-70 nm quite compatible with the commercially available titania powder(P-25). The prepared powder has 67 % Anatase and 33 % Rutile phase in it. Using this process a photocatalytically active TiO2 powder is synthesized which is tested using methylene blue for decolourisation effect. |
