Abstract

The conditions for the preparation of framework titanosilicates with zorite and ivanyukite structures were studied. The preparation of a gel-like precursor for hydrothermal synthesis is preferably performed from solutions. An excess amount of silicon relative to titanium(IV) and an alkaline medium with pH 10.5–12.5 provide oversaturation of the salt mass in the Na2O–K2O–TiO2–H2SO4–SiO2–H2O system. This makes it possible to regulate phase formation, ensuring the stability of the structure and surface properties of the final products. To inhibit titanium(IV) hydrolysis, the reduction Ti4+ → Ti3+ is performed. This technique leads to the formation of a monophase precipitate.
