  • Patent number: 5468463
    Abstract: A process for the preparation of very pure titanium dioxide by reacting titanium tetrahalides with sulphuric acid, hydrolysis the titanyl sulphate solution obtained and calcining the hydrolysate is disclosed wherein the reaction between titanium tetrahalide and aqueous 20-40% by weight strength sulphuric acid is performed in such a way that crystallisation of titanyl sulphate does not take place, the hydrogen halide is separated, the solution is optionally concentrated and filtered and then the ratio by weight of sulphuric acid to titanium dioxide is adjusted to between 1.7 and 2.0 and the titanium dioxide concentration is adjusted to between 250 and 300 g/l, the solution is hydrolyzed and the resulting titanium oxide hydrate is filtered off and calcined to give Futile or anatase.
