K2TiO4

K2TiO4 is the chemical formula for potassium titanate. It is an inorganic compound. Potassium titanate is a white crystalline solid. It has a layered structure. This structure is similar to that of mica. K2TiO4 is insoluble in water. It can be synthesized through various methods, often involving the reaction of potassium compounds with titanium compounds at high temperatures. One common method is the solid-state reaction of potassium carbonate with titanium dioxide. The resulting material can be used in applications such as fillers for polymers, as a catalyst, or in the development of advanced ceramic materials. Its properties, such as its high aspect ratio and thermal stability, make it of interest in composite materials. Further research continues to explore its potential uses in different technological fields.
