Titanium Oxysulfate‐Derived 1D Lepidocrocite Titanate Nanostructures

Abstract

Abstract Nanostructured titania, TiO2, holds significant importance in various scientific fields and technologies for their distinctive properties and multipurpose characteristics. In this article, the facile, economical, and scalable synthesis of 1D lepidocrocite, 1DL, titania nanostructures derived from a water‐soluble Ti precursor, titanium oxysulfate (with oxidation of Ti+4) at temperature 15 gL−1 indicating the formation of a liquid crystal phase. This new synthesis protocol enables the cheaper scalable production of 1DLs with significant implications across various fields.
