Titanium (4 +) ethanolate is hydrolytically unstable releasing ethanol and hydrated titanium dioxides when in contact with moisture or water. The hydrolytic stability was tested in buffered aqueous solutions at pH 4.0, 7.0, and 9.0 at 25 °C for 40 minutes (Brekelmans M.J.C. 2013). The progress of the hydrolysis was followed by monitoring alcohol, the main degradation product; ethanol. Additionally, the formation of a white precipitation was observed during the hydrolysis study. This is most likely due to the formation of the insoluble titanium oxides. Based on the results, it was concluded that the substance is hydrolytically unstable with hydrolysis half-life time of <5 minutes.
