Most of the research work related to TiO2 nanoparticle have utilized TiO2 instead of precursors. they have utilized de-ionized water as a medium. Every possible way of solubility range in acidic and alkaline conditions has been checked its not working. how to overcome this problem. Or we have to utilize the TiO2 in the dispersed condition?
Hi,
There are plenty of TiO2 precursors available such as alkoxides, halides, acetate etc. They can be appropriately used based on the application (this is not specified in your question). Using de-ionized water is not an issue, but for uniform dispersion, you would need a stabilizer/ surfactant/ capping agent. It would be more helpful if you could provide more details.

I don't know ,you use TiO2 for which work but a way to disperse it using of substrate. You can disperse it on the surface of porous materials or polymers.
We disperse anatase TiO2 nanoparticles in low ionic strength, high pH buffer, 10 mM KOH, using a tip sonicator. You can read more about it here:
