Properties and Usage:
Titanium tetrachloride (TiCl₄) is a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a strong pungent odor. It is an important chemical raw material, mainly used in the production of titanium dioxide pigments, as a catalyst for polymerization reactions, and for chemical synthesis.
1. Catalysts and co-catalysts
It has excellent hiding power and gloss.
2. Titanium dioxide production
Titanium tetrachloride is a key intermediate in the production of titanium dioxide (TiO₂). It reacts with oxygen to generate titanium dioxide gas, which is then converted into solid titanium dioxide. Titanium dioxide is widely used in coatings, plastics, paper, cosmetics and other fields as a white pigment with excellent hiding power and gloss.
3. Chemical synthesis
Organic synthesis: Titanium tetrachloride participates in chlorination reactions and other chemical transformations as a chlorination reagent, promoting the progress of various organic chemical reactions.
Synthetic metal compounds: It is used to synthesize titanium compounds such as titanates and titanates, which play an important role in materials science and catalysts, such as for the preparation of high-performance materials and catalysts.
4. Water treatment
Titanium tetrachloride promotes precipitation reaction in water treatment process, helps remove suspended matter and organic pollutants in water, and thus improves water quality.
5. Photoelectric materials
Titanium tetrachloride is used as a precursor compound to manufacture photoelectric materials and optical coatings, which are used in optical and electronic devices to improve the performance and durability of the equipment.
6. Scientific research and laboratories
In the laboratory, titanium tetrachloride is used to synthesize and study titanium compounds to explore their chemical properties and reaction mechanisms. It is a key reagent for understanding the chemical behavior of titanium.
