In-situ steric stabilization of ultrafine titania particles synthesized by a sol-gel process

This dissertation concerns the synthesis of ultra-fine titania particles starting with titanium ethoxide as a precursor. The particle size and morphology was controlled using polymeric stabilizers which imparted in-situ steric stability during the particle growth. An attempt was made to elucidate th...
