A method to obtain sodium titanate nanoribbons starting from a mixture of brookite and anatase TiO₂ nanopowder is described. As-prepared TiO2 nanopowder with a major brookite phase was used as a precursor in an alkaline hydrothermal approach, where the temperature was kept at 200 °C. The influence of hydrothermal treatment and consequent annealing temperature (T = 500
) on the crystal structure, phase composition, and morphology of samples were investigated by X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD), Raman and FTIR spectroscopy, ...
