Abstract
TiO 2/InN (In/(Ti + In) = 6.5:100 mol) was prepared by nitridation of TiO 2/In 2O 3 by NH 3 at 580 °C for 8 h. Only the anatase TiO 2 phase was detected in the XRD measurements. The highly dispersed InN clusters on the surface of anatase TiO 2 nanocrystals were beyond the detection limit of XRD. In order to confirm the existence of InN in the products of nitridation, thermogravimetry–differential scanning calorimetry–mass spectrometry (TG–DSC–MS) coupling techniques were used for a simultaneous characterizing study of the changes of mass, enthalpy and determination of the evolved gases during the thermal decomposition of the InN and the nitrided TiO 2/In 2O 3 samples. Moreover, pulse thermal analysis (PulseTA) was combined with TG–DSC–MS for the quantitative calibration of the evolved nitrogen formed during the thermal decomposition of the InN and the nitrided TiO 2/In 2O 3. The applied technique enabled identification and quantification of the InN in the products of the nitridation of TiO 2/In 2O 3.
