Abstract

A reactive ink (Ink 1) containing Ti(OPrⁱ)₄ in PrⁱOH with dimethoxyethan as a kinetic stabiliser deposits TiO₂ 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 TiO₂ at 200 °C. Printing of anatase on PET is also reported.
