Titanium oxide-containing material and process for preparing the same
First Claim
1. A process for plating a surface of a substrate with an anatase titanium oxide film, comprising:
- adding a titanium fluoride in an aqueous solvent to prepare a solution; and
bringing the solution into contact with the surface of the substrate while adding boric acid, malic acid, and citric acid to the solution.

Abstract
A titanium oxide-containing material having a surface plated with titanium oxide. It is prepared by dissolving titanium fluoride (such as titanium tetrafluoride) in an amount of 2.0% owf in water, immersing a raw material in the obtained aqueous solution to treat the material with the aqueous solution at room temperature for 30 min, and adding a 0.5:1:1 (on a weight basis) mixture of boric acid, citric add, and DL-malic add in an amount of 0.5% owf to the aqueous solution to treat the material with the aqueous solution at 50° C. for 30 min, followed by washing with water. The raw materials usable herein include synthetic fibers, metals, glass, and woods, and may be in the form of sheet, plate, fiber, rod, or the like. Introduction of a noble metal, such as gold or silver, in addition to titanium oxide, onto the surface of the material enables the acceleration of the photocatalytic action of titanium oxide.
