Extended crystal structure of rutile. Rutile has a tetragonal unit cell, with unit cell parameters a = b = 4.584 Å, and c = 2.953 Å. [8] The titanium cations have a coordination number of 6, meaning they are surrounded by an octahedron of 6 oxygen atoms. The oxygen anions have a coordination number of 3, resulting in a trigonal planar ...
The majority of transition metal dioxides (MO 2) have the rutile structure, seen to the right. Materials of this stoichiometry exist for Ti, Cr, V and Mn in the first row transition metal and for Zr to Pd in the second. The rutile structure is generated by filling half of the octahedral sites with cations of the hcp oxygen anion array. [5] [6]
The rutile structure is widespread for other metal dioxides and difluorides, e.g. RuO 2 and ZnF 2. Molten titanium dioxide has a local structure in which each Ti is coordinated to, on average, about 5 oxygen atoms. [9] This is distinct from the crystalline forms in which Ti coordinates to 6 oxygen atoms. Structure of anatase.
ISO/TS 11937 is a metrology standard for measuring several characteristics of dry titanium dioxide powder relevant for nanotechnology: crystal structure and anatase–rutile ratio can be measured using X-ray diffraction, average particle and crystallite sizes using X-ray diffraction or transmission electron microscopy, and specific surface area ...

Although the degree of symmetry is the same for both anatase and rutile phases, there is no relation between the interfacial angles of the two minerals, except in the prism-zone of 45° and 90°. The common octahedral crystal habit of anatase, with four perfect cleavage planes, has an angle over its polar edge of 82°9', whereas rutile ...
RuO 2 is extensively used for the coating of titanium anodes for the electrolytic production of chlorine and for the preparation of resistors or integrated circuits. [11] [12] Ruthenium oxide resistors can be used as sensitive thermometers in the temperature range .02 < T < 4 K.
Rutile is an oxide mineral composed of titanium dioxide (TiO 2), the most common natural form of TiO 2. Rarer polymorphs of TiO 2 are known, including anatase, akaogiite, and brookite. Rutile has one of the highest refractive indices at visible wavelengths of any known crystal and also exhibits a particularly large birefringence and high ...
