Nitrides, carbides, borides and oxides of transition metals in the form of nanoparticles have received in recent years the attention in the scientific world, by their specific physical and chemical properties, with direct applications to the high technology industry. This thesis was motivated by the development and experimental evaluation of a new reactor concept, tubular and cross-flow, which promotes better contact between the gas-phase reactants, allowing the execution of nanoparticle synthesis at lower temperatures. The reactor consists of a quartz tube and a gas supply system (NH3), equipped with baffles that redirects the gas promoting a more homogeneous distribution of it in the holes that feed the reactor. The TiCl4 vaporized is carried by argon gas, in the axial direction, to the reactor and NH3 is injected in the radial direction in the central region of the reactor. In the experimental apparatus developed were evaluated the effects of process variables, temperature, space time and TiCl4 partial pressure, on average crystallite size of the synthesized particles. The experimental results obtained show that in the proposed reactor was possible to produce, at room temperature, titanium nitride with 100% conversion and crystallite size below 20nm. Besides the production of the titanium nitride was also observed the formation of a particulate co- product, the ammonium chloride (NH4Cl). In the X-ray diffraction analyzes was observed the presence of titanium dioxide (anatase) and titanium oxynitride. The occurrence of these phases can be explained by the high reactivity of titanium nitride with oxygen and water vapor present in the atmosphere and their high specific surface.
