Description Various titanium silicates (TS-I) synthesized following two different routes by conventional method and by sol-gel method have been characterized by microcalorimetric adsorption of ammonia. Calorimetric measurements of a basic probe (NH3) have shown that these solids were ;very acidic compared to a silicalite-l sample. An introduction of a small amount of titanium creates acid sites of higher order in the medium strength range at low Ti contents (i.e., high SiiTi ratios) in both sample prepared by conventional and sol gel methods. The sample prepared by sol-gel method (SGM) found to possess stronger acidity compared to conventional preparations and this especially so at higher titanium content. The molecular sieve with low titanium contents displayed acid strength distribution more similar to silicalite. The unavoidable presence of chlorine is found to be responsible for the observed higher acidity in incipient wetness impregnated samples. Key words: TS-l, Adsorption calorimetry, Wetness impregnation, Bronsted acidity.
