What is it about?
Anatase TiO2 with with preferential exposure of the reactive {001} facet were synthesized using vanadia as the structure-directing agent. The exposed fraction of the {001} facet approached 53% upon adjusting the V/Ti molar ratio of the synthetic solution. After calcination at 723 K in air, the resulting VOx/TiO2 truncated bipyramids effectively catalyzed the selective reduction of NO by ammonia.

Why is it important?
we report a fluorine-free approach to synthesize anatase TiO2 with preferential exposure of {001} facet using vanadia as the structure-directing agent . After calcination at 723 K in air, the resulting VOx/TiO2 truncated bipyramids effectively catalyzed the selective reduction of NO by NH3.
