Albany, NY -- (SBWIRE) -- 07/13/2018 -- Potassium hexatitanate is a crystalline compound, which has an extremely fine crystals like structure with a fiber length of 10 to 20 µm and fiber diameter of 0.3 to 0.6 µm. Its chemical formula is K2Ti6O13. Titanate fibers are new materials with high heat resistance and good chemical stability with a general chemical formula, given as K2O?nTiO2 (n = 2 to 8), where the value of "n" determines the potassium content. It possesses properties such as high strength, stiffness, and aspect ratio. Potassium hexatitanate belongs to materials of various uses due to its potential economic importance. This relatively inexpensive, fibrous material has good thermal durability, chemical resistivity, and dispersibility and has been found to be useful as a reinforcement material for plastic and ceramics, heat-insulating paints, and automotive brake linings. Potassium hexatitanate is utilized in numerous applications in industries such as electronics, ceramics, and batteries. It is also employed in ion exchanger materials, thermal insulators, reinforcements, catalysts, photo catalysts, substitutes of asbestos, etc. Generally, the titanate compounds contain a form of titanium oxide. The single crystals of potassium hexatitanate were synthesized by melt reacting TiO2 and K2CO3, from which lattice parameters, indexes of X-ray powder diffraction data and infrared spectra are obtained. The crystal system of potassium hexatitanate is monoclinic. Potassium hexatitanate is generally immediately available in most volumes, high purity, submicron and nano powder forms.
