Patent ID: 10758891

Abstract:
A TiO2 photocatalytic particle comprises at least one core with a crystalline anatase structure, a first layer is at least partly surrounding the core, and comprising one from TiO2, TiO(2-x), and TiO2*H2O, said first partly ordered layer comprising parts where molecules are aligned with an imaginary extension of the crystal planes of the core, the first layer is in close contact with a second outer layer, at least partly enclosing the first layer and the core. The second layer comprises one from layered titanium dioxide and titanium dioxide in TiO2 (B)-form, said second layer is partly ordered, and said second layer comprising sheets aligned with crystal planes transversal to the outer surface of said particle. Advantages include that the outer layer of the particles can be modified to be optimized for the particular application which is an advantage for catalysis and other application where the properties of the outermost surface is of importance.
