Popis: Thermal decomposition of a peroxopolytitanic acid cryogel was followed by simultaneous thermal analysis (TG/DTA) coupled with mass spectrometer (MS) and infrared spectroscope (FTIR). During the decomposition, the evolution of H 2 O (either residual moisture or as product of dehydration reactions), NH 3 (precipitating agent used in preparation), O 2 (decomposition of peroxogroups), SO 2 (decomposition of residual sulfates), N 2 (freezing agent in preparation), N 2 O, NO, NO 2 (products of NH 3 oxidation) and CO 2 (adsorbed from atmosphere) was sought for. It was determined, that the decomposition is a four step process. During the first step, water and carbon dioxide evolve. At around 300 °C both N 2 O and CO 2 ( m / z = 44) were detected, as confirmed by FTIR spectroscopy. At 430–450 °C (depending of heating rate) amorphous phase crystallizes into anatase.
