Recovery of TiO2 nanoparticles synthesized in reverse micelles by antisolvent CO2
نویسندگان
چکیده
The possibility to recover the titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles synthesized in sodium bis(2-ethylhexyl) sulfosuccinate (AOT) reverse micelles by compressed CO2 was investigated. UV-Vis study showed that TiO2 nanoparticles could be deposited from the reverse micelles by the dissolved CO2. The nanoparticels were prepared and characterized by the transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The results showed that the TiO2 nanoparticles of very small size could be obtained. The effect of the operation conditions on the particle size is discussed. © 2003 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Effect of Compressed Co2 on the Properties of Aot in Isooctane Reverse Micellar Solution and Its Application to Recover Nanoparticles
Effect of compressed CO2 on properties of the sodium bis(2-ethylhexyl) sulfosuccinate (AOT)/isooctane/water reverse micellar solution has been studied by phase behavior measurement. UV-vis study indicates that TiO2 in the reverse micelles can be precipitated by compressed CO2 at suitable pressures, while the surfactant AOT remains in the solution. Using this concept, TiO2 nanoparticles synthesi...
