Description

Dibutoxytitanium Dichloride is a versatile organotitanium compound that serves as a key precursor and catalyst in advanced material synthesis. Its value lies in its ability to facilitate controlled hydrolysis-condensation reactions, forming titanium-oxygen networks essential for high-performance coatings and ceramics. This chemical is primarily needed by manufacturers in the specialty polymer, advanced ceramic, and thin-film deposition industries seeking to enhance material properties.

Application

• As a precursor for sol-gel synthesis of titanium dioxide (TiO₂) thin films and nanoparticles for optical and photocatalytic applications.
• As a catalyst or co-catalyst in Ziegler-Natta type polymerization reactions and other organic transformations.
• In the surface treatment and modification of materials to improve adhesion, corrosion resistance, or hydrophobicity.
• For the manufacture of heat-resistant and anti-corrosive coatings on metals, glass, and ceramics.
• As a cross-linking agent or additive in the production of specialty silicones and high-temperature polymers.
• In research and development for novel metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and hybrid organic-inorganic materials.

Quality Control

Our Dibutoxytitanium Dichloride is produced under controlled conditions to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Quality is verified through a suite of analytical techniques including titration, gas chromatography (GC), and infrared spectroscopy (IR). A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and impurity profiles is provided with each shipment to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and highly volatile nature, containers must be kept tightly sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) after opening to prevent degradation and moisture uptake.
