Abstract
A porous particulate nanocomposite material comprising, as determined by X-ray diffraction: carbon; an orthorhombic CaTiO3 crystalline phase; and, a rhombohedral MgTiO3 crystalline phase. Based on the total number of atoms in the nanocomposite material and as determined by energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX): the atomic concentration of carbon (C) is from about 1 to about 5 atom % (at. %); the atomic concentration of titanium (Ti) is from about 20 to about 35 at. %; the atomic concentration of magnesium (Mg) is from about 5 to about 15 at. %; and, the atomic concentration of calcium (Ca) is from about 5 to about 15 at. %.
