Abstract
Titanium dioxide is well known for its photocatalytic properties and low toxicity, meanwhile, silicone dioxide exhibits hydrophobic and hydrophilic properties and thermal stability. The union of these two materials offers a composite material with a wide range of applications that relate directly to the combined properties. The SiO2-TiO2 composite has been synthesized through physical methods and chemical methods and, with adequate conditions, morphology, crystallinity, boundaries between SiO2-TiO2, among other properties, can be controlled. Thus, the applications of this composite are wide for surface applications, being primarily used as powder or coating. However, the available research information on this kind of composite material is still novel, therefore research in this field is still needed in order to clarify all the physical and chemical properties of the material. This review aims to encompass the available methods of synthesis of SiO2-TiO2 composite with modifiers or dopants, the application and known chemical and physical properties in surfaces such as glass, mortar and textile, including aspects for the development of this material.
