Ti8O13 is a titanium oxide compound belonging to the family of reduced titanium oxides (Magnéli phases), which are mixed-valence semiconductors intermediate between TiO2 and metallic titanium. This material is primarily of research interest for electrochemical and photocatalytic applications, valued for its improved electrical conductivity compared to stoichiometric TiO2 while retaining useful redox properties. Its use in commercial products remains limited, but it shows promise in energy storage, photocatalysis, and electrochemical sensing where the combination of semiconductor behavior and enhanced conductivity offers advantages over conventional titania.
