Titanic acid is a general name for a family of chemical compounds of the elements titanium, hydrogen, and oxygen, with the general formula [TiOx(OH)4−2x]n. Various simple titanic acids have been claimed, mainly in the older literature.[1] No crystallographic and little spectroscopic support exists for these materials. Some older literature refers to TiO2 as titanic acid,[2] and the dioxide forms an unstable hydrate when TiCl4 hydrolyzes.[3]
