Product Introduction
Titanium Tetraisopropanolate (CAS 546-68-9), commonly known as TTIP or Titanium(IV) Isopropoxide, is a colorless to light yellow liquid with a sharp, alcohol-like odor. It is a highly reactive metal alkoxide that reacts rapidly with water to form titanium dioxide (TiO2). Titanium Tetraisopropanolate (CAS 546-68-9) is a key reagent in modern chemistry, serving as a powerful Lewis acid catalyst and a fundamental building block in material science. Its ability to undergo controlled hydrolysis and polycondensation makes it the preferred precursor for creating nanostructured titanium materials and high-performance thin films.

Packaging
Standard industrial packaging options for Titanium Tetraisopropanolate include:
-
200kg high-purity steel drums with internal anti-corrosive linings.
-
1000kg specialized IBC tanks for bulk industrial use.
-
ISO Tanks for large-scale international bulk maritime transport.
-
All packaging is hermetically sealed and nitrogen-blanketed to prevent hydrolysis caused by atmospheric moisture.
Storage
Titanium Tetraisopropanolate is highly moisture-sensitive and flammable. It must be stored in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated warehouse away from heat, sparks, and open flames. Containers must be kept tightly sealed under an inert gas (nitrogen or argon). Store in a dedicated area for flammable and moisture-sensitive chemicals. Store away from strong acids, strong bases, and water. Properly stored in its original, unopened container, it has a shelf life of at least 12 months.
