Nano-scale　rutile-type　TiO2　was　prepared　using　TiCl3　as　the　source　and　DBS　as　anionic　surfactant　after　the　product　was　dried.　The　phase　structures,　crystal　sizes,　microstructures　and　morphologies　of　the　products　were　analyzed　by　XRD　and　TEM　technique.　The　electron　diffraction　and　crystal　arrangement　were　analyzed.　The　role　of　anionic　surfactant　on　the　crystal　nuclei　and　growth　were　discussed.　It　was　shown　that　this　derived　TiO2　crystals　exhibited　super　thermal　stability　upon　heating　afterwards.　It　was　suggested　that　the　polar　TiO2　affected　the　absorption　and　distribution　of　the　anionic　surfactant.　The　product　exhibited　bundles　of　parallel　branches.　It　was　suggested　that　the　form　of　the　crystal　and　the　preferred　orientation　distribution　had　something　to　do　with　the　adding　of　surfactant.
