Titanic acid is suitable for energy storage devices

Can tannic acid be used in Ti 3 C 2 T X MXene?

The electrochemical performances of Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene are severely restricted by the easy oxidation and restacking. Herein, tannic acid (TA) is introduced into Ti 3 C 2 T x dispersion, and the mixed dispersion is further subjected to a simple hydrothermal treatment to prepare the hydrothermal Ti 3 C 2 T x and TA composite (h-Ti 3 C 2 T x @h-TA).

How are amorphous titanic acid nanoparticles made?

Amorphous titanic acid nanoparticles (NPs) were made with the simple TiCl 4 hydrolysis approach under ambient temperature, and TiO 2 nanoparticles were obtained, in which the final treatment was different from white precipitation only in calcination temperature −200 ℃ and 550 ℃ for titanate and TiO 2, respectively.

What is Tannic acid (TA)?

Herein, tannic acid (TA) is introduced into Ti 3 C 2 T x dispersion, and the mixed dispersion is further subjected to a simple hydrothermal treatment to prepare the hydrothermal Ti 3 C 2 T x and TA composite (h-Ti 3 C 2 T x @h-TA). Due to the decomposition of TA into gallic acid (GA), hydrothermal TA (h-TA) is a mixture of TA and GA.

How to make titanium tetrachloride (TiCl 4)?

Titanic acid powders were prepared by a simple co-precipitation approach and TiO 2 was obtained by calcining the titanic acid powder. Briefly, 5-ml titanium tetrachloride (TiCl 4) was added drop by drop into 200-ml distilled water with rapid magnetic stirring for 10 min.
