Titania Supports

Titanium dioxide occurs naturally in three crystal modifications: anatase, brookite and rutile. In particular, the anatase modification is important for pigments as well as for the production of catalyst carriers.
The building blocks in the anatase structure are linked via 4 edges (rutile only two edges), which, despite belonging to the same crystal system, leads to characteristic differences in the lattice structure, that are reflected in physical and catalytic properties.
These features need to be preserved when generating materials with dedicated properties, such as density, porosity, or pore texture.
Most common for catalysis applications is the use of anatase-based carriers, however we have also developed a series of porous rutile extrudates with a reasonable surface areas. Typically, only high purity raw materials and no inorganic binders are employed in our processes.
In our portfolio we have standard extrudates that serve typical industrial application in the chemical or petrochemical industry.
Nonetheless, we always encourage our customers to use these “standards” as a starting point to jointly develop a tailor-made system, which will show even superior process characteristics.
