Abstract

The paper discusses how different titania nanostructures can be produced from our local mineral reso urce. Synthetic rutlie produced from the Malaysian downstream illmenite processing industry could be used as the starting material for the production of rutile and anatase nano powders. Rutile with 6.7nm crystal size can be produced by hydrothermal method while anatase with 24nm size is produce by the solvothermal method. Besides that titanate nanotube and nanowire can also be produced from the same starting material by using using the dissolution-recrystallization method. The paper also looks into the different applications ofthese nanostructures TiD 2 in parlicular the result on degradation ofmethylene red dye using visible light.
