A hybrid nanoparticle/alkoxide ink for inkjet printing of TiO2: a templating effect to form anatase at 200 °C

摘要

A reactive ink ( Ink 1 ) containing Ti(OPr ~(i) ) _(4) in Pr ~(i) OH with dimethoxyethan as a kinetic stabiliser deposits TiO _(2) by inkjet printing. A hybrid ink ( Ink 2 ) consists of Ink 1 with the addition of anatase NPs, which act as seeds for the formation of anatase TiO _(2) at 200 °C. Printing of anatase on PET is also reported.
