Abstract
Titania (TiO2) supports with anatase (A), mixed, and rutile (R) crystalline phases were prepared via the hydrothermal treatment of titanium isopropoxide and investigated as a catalyst for the oxidative steam reforming of methanol (OSRM). The different TiO2 phases were synthesized using different types of acid: acetic (HAc), nitric, and a mixture of HAc and hydrochloric acids, and hydrothermal (90 or 200 °C) or calcination (560 or 750 °C) temperatures. X-ray diffraction analysis revealed the crystal structure of successfully synthesized TiO2 with different TiO2-A:TiO2-R ratios. The TiO2-R with (110) and (101) planes showed the highest catalytic activity for OSRM in the temperature range of 200–400 °C.
