Fruits of Serendipity in Research of Titanium Compounds: from “Sodium Tianide” to Titanium Nitride Whiskers
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 10 January 2013
Abstract
The usefulness of complementing the results of X-ray diffraction (XRD) with an independent technique such as Raman spectroscopy (RS) was demonstrated by the successful identification of the products (TiN and Na-titanates) from the reaction of TiO2 with NaCN. The study of other reactions of NaCN with several Ti-compounds to produce TiN powder led to the development of new syntheses reactions for known [TiP2O7, NaTi2(PO4)3 and NaxTiO2] and for new [(TiO)2P2O7, Na(TiO)PO4 and Na4(TiO)(PO4)2] compounds. The reaction of NaxTiO2 with NaCN produced TiN in the form of whiskers.
