The invention discloses aluminum precursor coated
titanium dioxide. The surface of
titanium dioxide is coated with an aluminum
oxide precursor. The invention also discloses a preparation method of the aluminum precursor coated
titanium dioxide and a method for preparing the aluminum coated
titanium dioxide. The
coating process is different from a common
aluminum coating method in which
hydrated alumina is directly formed and coated on
titanium dioxide. According to the preparation method, the aluminum precursor is firstly generated and coats the surface of the
titanium dioxide, and the aluminum precursor is of a molecular
chain structure, so that the precursor is more easily coated on the surface of the titanium dioxide; the surface of the aluminum
oxide precursor in the solution has a large number of hydroxyl groups, so that the repulsive interaction among particles is relatively large, the self-phase
nucleation difficulty is high, and heterogeneous
nucleation is facilitated, so that titanium dioxide is perfectly coated, then water is removed through
drying, and non-bridging hydroxyl groups of adjacent colloidal particles are spontaneously converted into bridging hydroxyl groups; meanwhile, coordination water of a gel part structure is removed, and bridging hydroxyl groups are also formed among
coating particles, so that a
coating layer on the surface of the titanium dioxide is uniform and compact, and the
weather resistance of the titanium dioxide is superior to that of the titanium dioxide prepared by a traditional
aluminum coating method.
