The surface acidity/ basicity of TiO2 (rutile) and its sulphate modified
form have been determined by titration method using Hammett
indicators after activation at different temperatures. The electron
donating properties of these oxides are also studied from the adsorption
of electron acceptors of different electron affinity values. The
data have been correlated with the catalytic activity of these oxides
towards esterification of acetic acid using n-butanol, reduction of
cyclohexanone in isopropanol and oxidation of cyclohexanol in benzophenone.
Catalytic activity for esterification and oxidation reaction
parallels the acidity while that for reduction reaction parallels
the basicity of these oxides. |
