The metastable phase of TiO2(B), one of the polymorphs of titanium dioxide (TiO2), was prepared by a hydrothermal treatment of a titanium glycolate complex ([Ti-4(C2H2O3)(4)(C2H3O3)(2)(O-2)(4)O-2](6-)) at 473 K for 1-72 h in the presence of H2SO4. Characterization by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) revealed that the obtained samples were composed of single phase TiO2(B) and the particles had plate-like morphology. After post-synthetic hydrothermal crystal growth (PHCG) applied to the as-prepared sample, thicker plate-like shaped particles were obtained. The photocatalytic activities of the samples obtained by the hydrothermal treatment and after the subsequent PHCG were evaluated in terms of methanol decomposition.
