Abstract

The invention discloses TiO2 slurry used in large-area dye-sensitized solar cell preparation by a screen printing technology. The TiO2 slurry comprises TiO2, terpilenol, ethyl cellulose, a leveling agent and ethanol. The mass ratio of the TiO2, the terpilenol, the ethyl cellulose and the leveling agent is 0.5-3: 3-13: 0.3-2:0.1-3; the particle size of the TiO2 is 10-30 nm, wherein if counted by number, the TiO2 with a particle size equal to or more than 10 nm and less than 20 nm accounts for 10% to 25%, the TiO2 with a particle size of 20 nm accounts for 60% to 75%, and the TiO2 with a particle size more than 20 nm and equal to or less than 30 nm accounts for 10% to 20%; the viscosity of the slurry is 2.1*10<5> to 2.5*10<5> mPa.s. The slurry can be printed repeatedly and no cracks are generated; high-temperature sintering enables the slurry to exhibit excellent inter-particle bonding performance and not easy to exfoliate; and therefore, the provided TiO2 slurry and a method for preparing the TiO2 slurry are suitable for large-area dye-sensitized solar cell preparation by using the screen printing technology and have industrial mass production prospects.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of dye-sensitized solar cells, in particular to a TiO used in the preparation of large-area dye-sensitized solar cells by a screen printing process 2 Slurry and method for its preparation.
