Overview

In situ high-pressure analysis reveals phase transition of water-bearing TiO2-II to akaogiite, indicating alterations in thermal stability.

Key Points

  • Water-bearing TiO2-II transforms to akaogiite at 12–15 GPa, showcasing higher phase transition pressures than dry variants.
  • At ambient pressure, the transition to rutile occurs at 500–600 °C, notably lower than the 730 °C for anhydrous forms.
  • High-pressure Raman spectroscopy up to 38 GPa and thermal evaluation up to 900 °C were key methods in the analysis.
  • This study suggests that the phase transition temperature decreases due to partial dehydration during heating.
