Titanium oxide

Artist's impression of the exoplanet WASP-19b, in which atmosphere astronomers, including Nikku Madhusudhan, detected titanium oxide.[1]

Reduced titanium oxides

[edit]

A common reduced titanium oxide is TiO, also known as titanium monoxide. It can be prepared from titanium dioxide and titanium metal at 1500 °C.[4]

Ti3O5, Ti4O7, and Ti5O9 are non-stoichiometric oxides. These compounds are typically formed at high temperatures in the presence of excess oxygen.[5][6] As a result, they exhibit unique structural and electronic properties, and have been studied for their potential use in various applications, including in gas sensors, lithium-ion batteries, and photocatalysis.[6]
