Titanium (III) oxide is an inorganic chemical compound of titanium from the group of oxides .
Extraction and presentation
Titanium (III) oxide can be obtained by reacting titanium with titanium (IV) oxide at 1600 ° C.
It can also be produced by reacting carbon monoxide with titanium (IV) oxide at 800 ° C.
properties
Titanium (III) oxide is a dark purple to black powder that is insoluble in water. It dissolves in sulfuric acid and the acid turns violet. When heated with hydrofluoric acid and aqua regia , it decomposes. Its crystal structure is trigonal , isotypic to that of corundum with space group R 3 c (space group no. 167) (a = 514.8 pm , c = 1363.6 pm). The compound exists in the range from TiO 1.49 to TiO 1.51 . Below 200 ° C it is a semiconductor, above it it is metallically conductive.
use
Titanium (III) oxide is used as a starting material for interference layers , thin-film resistors and capacitors .
