Abstract

TiO₂-based nanomaterials are attracting much attention in many areas, such as photocatalysis, photoelectricity, probing, electrochromism, photochromism, etc. They are widely used in paints, polymers, sunscreens, and toothpaste. There are various ways of synthesis that affect the size, shape, and crystallinity of TiO₂ nanoparticles. The main methods of obtaining titanium dioxide (with the structure of anatase, rutile or brookite) in the form of spheres, rods, fibers, and tubes include: sol-gel technology, hydrothermal and solvothermal methods, microwave method involving high-frequency electromagnetic waves, template method, electrodeposition, a sonochemical method using ultrasound, chemical and physical vapor deposition, "green" methods, etc. This literature review presents modern scientific results on the production of TiO₂ nanoparticles by various methods.
