Patent Images
1. A process for making a mesoporous oxide of titanium, comprising:
- precipitating an ionic porogen and a hydrolyzed compound comprising titanium; and
removing the ionic porogen from the precipitate to recover a mesoporous oxide of titanium, the amount of ionic porogen and the precipitating conditions being effective for producing a mesoporous oxide of titanium having a pore volume of at least about 0.5 cc/g and an average pore diameter of at least about 200 Å

12. A process for making a mesoporous oxide of titanium, comprising:
precipitating an ionic porogen and a hydrous oxide of titanium from a reaction mixture comprising a titanium starting material, a base and a solvent, wherein the titanium starting material or the solvent, or both, are a source of the anion for the ionic porogen and the base is the source of the cation for the ionic porogen, the precipitating being carried out under conditions effective for recovering a mesoporous oxide of titanium having a pore volume of at least about 0.5 cc/g and an average pore diameter of at least about 200 Å
after removing the ionic porogen from the precipitate.- View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26)

27. A process for making a mesoporous oxide of titanium, the process comprising:
-
forming a mixture of a solid hydrolyzed starting material comprising titanium and a liquid medium;
adding a sufficient quantity of a halide salt to the mixture to saturate the liquid medium of the mixture;
recovering the solid from the saturated liquid medium, the solid comprising a hydrolyzed intermediate comprising titanium having pores containing the saturated liquid medium; and
removing the saturated liquid medium from the solid to recover a mesoporous oxide of titanium having a pore volume of at least about 0.5 cc/g and an average pore diameter of at least about 200 Å
