Application
Use Transparent Titania Paste in applications that require a transparent sintered titania film with a large surface/volume ratio. Transparent Titania Paste is formulated to yield sintered film thicknesses of 6-7μm when screen printed with a 43T mesh. Transparent Titania Paste has highly dispersed and stable anatase nanoparticles.It is optimised for screen printing using a synthetic 43T mesh screen (or similar). After drying; this paste must be fired at or above 500°C. This results in a transparent sintered layer; with a film thickness of approximately 6-7μm for one printed layer and ~12μm for two printed layers; when using a 43T mesh screen.The paste exhibits optimal rheological properties that provide good surface uniformity and contains organic binders specially formulated to provide versatile porosity suitable for a range of dye/electrolyte systems.Storage: Store in the dark at 20°CTiO2 paste forms a screen printed film which is majorly used as a conduction band on indium tin oxide (ITO) or fluorine doped tin oxide (FTO) based substrates for dye sensitized solar cells and for major photovoltaic based applications.
