There is provided a method of producing titanium oxides which comprises: admixing an aqueous solution of titanium tetrachloride with sulfuric acid in a molar ratio of sulfuric acid to titanium tetrachloride of at least 0.5 adding an alklai to the resultant solution to produce titanium hydroxide; and drying and calcining the titanium hydroxide. A further method is provided which comprises: adding a solution of an alkali to an aqueous solution of titanium tetrachloride having a concentration of not more than 2.5 moles/l at temperatures of not less than 50.degree. C., thereby to substantially thermally hydrolyze the titanium tetrachloride and to produce titanium hydroxide; and drying and calcining the titanium hydroxide.
