Fibrous $Na_xTi_nO_{2n+1}$ whisker was prepared by $H^+/Na^+$ ion-exchange on layered hydrous titanium dioxide ($H_2Ti_4O_9{\cdot}nH_2O$). The ion-exchange reaction was proceeded at 0.5~2.0 M NaOH solution. In the ion-exchange at 2.0 M NaOH solution, 73% of sodium was exchanged and the prepared $Na_xTi_nO_{2n+1}$ whisker was a fibrous crystal of about $10{\sim}20{\mu}m$ of length and about $0.7{\mu}m$ of diameter. The phase transition of the ion-exchange phases identified by the thermal analysis. The result showed that the $Na_xTi_nO_{2n+1}$ whisker was decomposed into $Na_2Ti_6O_{13}$ and $TiO_2$ in the temperature of $200{\sim}600^{\circ}C$.

Chemical vapor deposition (CVD), ion beam sputtering (IBS) and sol-gel method were used to prepare TiO$_2$ thin films for degradation of hazardous organic compounds exemplified by 2-chlorophenol (2-CP). The influence of supporting materials and coating methods on the photocatalytic activity of the TiO$_2$ thin films were also studied. TiO$_2$ thin films were coated onto various supporting materials including steel cloth (SS), copper cloth, quartz glass tube (QGT), and silica gel (SG). Results indicate that SS (37 μm)- TiO$_2$ thin film prepared by IBS method improves the photodegradation of 2-CP. Among all supporting materials studied, SS(37 μm) is found to be the best support.

We report on the effects of $TiO_2$ doping power on the characteristics of multicomponent $TiO_2$-ITO (TITO) electrodes prepared by a multi-target sputtering system with tilted cathode guns. Both as-deposited and annealed TITO electrodes showed linearly increased sheet resistance and resistivity with increasing $TiO_2$ doping power. However, the TITO electrodes exhibited a fairly high optical transmittance regardless of the $TiO_2$ doping power due to the high transparency of the $TiO_2$. Although the annealed TITO showed much lower sheet resistance and resistivity relative to the as-deposited samples, the electrical properties of the annealed samples exhibited similar dependence on the $TiO_2$ power to the as-deposited samples. In addition, it was found that doping of an anatase $TiO_2$ in the ITO electrode prevented the preferred (222) orientation of the TITO electrodes. Although the TITO electrode showed higher sheet resistance and resistivity than that of the pure ITO electrode, it offers a very smooth surface and usage of a low-cost Ti element. It is thus considered a promising multicomponent transparent conducting electrode for cost-efficient flat panel displays and photovoltatics.

The formation of strontium titanate from several molar $SrCO_3$ and $TiO_2$ mixtures was studied in air and $CO_2$ gas Mixtures of $SrCO_3$ and $TiO_2$ were heated in air at 400-$600^{\circ}C$ DTA-TG was used to obtain thermal histories of simples heated in air and $CO_2$ gas. X-ray diffraction analysis was used to determine both the phase composition and the amounts of each phase present. The phase relationship of various compounds $SrTiO_3$, $Sr_2TiO_4$, $Sr_2Ti_3O_7$ and $Sr_4Ti_3O_{10}$ formed by the sintering in each composition was shown by the calibration curves. High temperature X-ray analysis was used to determine both the formation process and deformation process of each products. Small amount of SrTiO3 is formed first at the surface af contact SrTiO3 reacts with $SrCO_3$ to form Sr2TiO4 this is affected on the $CO_2$ pressure.

Catalytic wet air oxidation of acetic acid over Mn-Ce based catalysts deposited on various supports ($SiO_2$, $TiO_2$, $ZrO_2$), $ZrSiO_4$, $ZrO_2(10wt%)/TiO_2$) have been carried out in high pressure microreactors. Also, promotional effects by small addition(O.5~1.0 wt%) of p-type semiconductors (CoO, $Ag_2O$, SnO) have been investigated. From the screening tests for initial activity ranking, both Mn(2.8)-Ce(7.2 wt%) and Ru(O.4)Mn(2.7)-Ce(6.9 wt%) supported on $TiO_2$ were selected as the promising reference candidates. In $Mn-Ce/TiO_2$ reference catalyst, addition of small amount of each p-type semiconductor (Co, Sn and Ag) resulted in activity promotional effect and the degree of the increase was in the following order: Co> Ag > Sn. Especially, $Mn-Ce/TiO_2$ promoted with 0.5 wt% Co gave the 2.6 folds activity increase compared to the reference case attributing to the surface area increase as well as synergy effect. In $Ru-Mn-Ce/TiO_2$ reference catalyst, only Co(1.0 wt%) promoted case showed a little reaction rate increase.

In this work, $TiO_2$ nanoparticles were synthesized using $N_2-diluted$ and Oxygen-enriched co-flow hydrogen diffusion flames. The effect of flame temperature on the crystalline structure of the formed $TiO_2$ nanoparticles was investigated. The measured maximum centerline temperature of the flame ranged from 2,103k for oxygen-enriched flame to 1,339K for $N_2-diluted$ flame. The visible flame length and the height of the main reaction zone were characterized by direct photographs. The crystalline structures of $TiO_2$ nanoparticles were analyzed by XRD. From the XRD analysis, it was evident that the crystalline structures of the formed nanoparticles were divided into two sorts. In the higher temperature region, over the 1,700K, the fraction of formed $TiO_2$ nanoparticles having anatase-phase crystalline structure increased with increasing the flame temperature. On the contrary, in the lower temperature region, below the 1,600K, the fraction of anatase-phase nanoparticles increased with decreasing the flame temperature.

$Al_2O_3$ composites powders with 1∼11 wt% $TiO_2$ were prepared by wet method and sintered at 1350$^{\circ}C$, 1450$^{\circ}C$ for 2h. Mechanical properties and microstructural evolution were investigated in this study. $Al_2O_3$-3 wt% $TiO_2$ composite were high bulk density of 2.37 g/$cm^3$ and low apparent porosity of 6.3%. The composites containing of 3 wt% $TiO_2$ showed moderately high bending strength of 68.9 MPa and the young's modulus of 35.5 MPa. The composites with increasing $TiO_2$ contents exhibit reduced thermal expansion coefficient due to the formation of $Al_2TiO_5$ phase.

Quaternary TiZrAlN nanocomposite thin films with a composition of 20.7Ti-22.2Zr-2.7Al-54.4N (at.%) were deposited by the closed-field unbalanced magnetron sputtering (CFUBMS) method and oxidized in air at temperatures between 500 and $700^{\circ}C$. The oxides formed were $TiO_2$, $ZrO_2$, and $Al_2O_3$. The films had inferior oxidation resistance because the amounts of $ZrO_2$ and $TiO_2$ were large while the amount of $Al_2O_3$ was small. The oxidation progressed primarily by the inward diffusion of oxygen and the outward diffusion of nitrogen.

The LNT ceramics which has the large negative temperature coefficient of resonant frequency ($\tau_1$) were manufactured by varying the $TiO_2$ contents. The effects of secondary phase $TiO_2$ which was caused by excess $TiO_2$ on the microstructure, phase transformations and microwave dielectric properties in ($Li_{1/2}Nd_{1/2}$)$TiO_3$ binary system were studied by X-ray and SEM. In case of adding up to 5 mol% $TiO_2$ on LNT, the liquid phase $TiO_2$which was created in the grain boundary of LNT not only increased the bulk density but also caused the nonhomogeneous structure of LNT which reduced the microwave dielectric characteristics. But the temperature coefficient of resonant frequency was improved by the 10 mol% addition of $TiO_2$.

The effects of sintering additives such as B $i_2$ $O_3$ and $V_2$ $O_{5}$ on the microwave dielectric and sintering properties of (Z $n_1$$_{-xM}$ $g_{x}$)Ti $O_3$ system were investigated. Highly dense samples were obtained for (Z $n_{0.8}$M $g_{0.2}$)Ti $O_3$ at the sintering temperature range of 870~90$0^{\circ}C$ with B $i_2$ $O_3$ and $V_2$ $O_{5}$ additions of 〈1 wt.%, respectively. The microwave dielectric properties of (Z $n_{0.8}$M $g_{0.2}$)Ti $O_3$ with 0.45 wt.%B $i_2$ $O_3$ and 0.55 wt.% $V_2$ $O_{5}$ sintered at 90$0^{\circ}C$ were as follows : Q$\times$ $f_{o}$ = 50,800 GHz, $\varepsilon$$_{r}$ = 22, and $\tau$$_{f}$ = -53 ppm/$^{\circ}C$. In order to improve temperature coefficient of resonant frequency, Ti $O_2$ was added to the above system. The optimum amount of Ti $O_2$ was 15 moi.% when sintered at 87$0^{\circ}C$, at which we could obtain following results: Q$\times$ $f_{o}$ = 32,800 GHz, $\varepsilon$$_{r}$ = 26, and$\tau$$_{f}$ = 0 ppm/$^{\circ}C$.EX>.EX>.EX>.EX>.EX>.EX>.EX>.
