[0007] Chinese patent (publication number 101699588A) discloses a preparation method of oily titanium dioxide slurry. However, this method first prepares titanium dioxide aqueous slurry, heats and concentrates to remove water and then prepares oily slurry. The preparation process is complicated and not suitable for industrial production
Chinese patent (publication number 101314523) discloses a method for preparing titanium dioxide slurry by grinding method. However, the titanium dioxide slurry prepared by this method is made into a film by the doctor blade method, which cannot be quickly and easily prepared by screen printing. High-quality, large-area and thin film Thickness-controllable TiO2 thin films

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for quickly preparing silkscreen printing paste for photo anodes of dye-sensitized solar cells. The method for preparing silkscreen printing paste for photo anodes of dye-sensitized solar cells comprises the steps of mixing anatase titanium dioxide nano-particles, surfactant, super-dispersing coating agent, viscosity regulator and solvent, and dispersing the mixture for 0.5-12 hours by a mechanical dispersion method. The prepared silkscreen printing paste for photo anodes of dye-sensitized solar cells is evenly dispersed, has good stability and can be placed for a few months without settlement. When titanium dioxide paste for silk-screen printing is used in dye-sensitized solar cells, more than 9% photoelectric conversion efficiency can be obtained under light intensity of 100mW / cm<2>. The silk-screen printing titanium dioxide paste preparing method of the invention has the advantages of simple operation, readily available equipment, short synthesis cycle, low manufacturing cost, high repetition performance and good industrialized application prospect.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a rapid preparation method of titanium dioxide slurry for screen printing, more specifically, relates to a rapid preparation method of titanium dioxide slurry for screen printing which can be applied to the photoanode of dye-sensitized solar cells. technical background [0002] The shortage of non-renewable energy such as coal and oil and the aggravation of environmental pollution make it more urgent to effectively utilize safe, clean, pollution-free solar energy resources that are not limited by geographical location. Solar cells, a new energy field that converts solar energy into electrical energy, have become the focus of many researchers. Among various types of solar cells, dye-sensitized solar cells have attracted widespread attention due to their high photoelectric conversion efficiency, simple preparation process, low cost, and low dependence on light intensity. [0003] A dye-sensitized solar cell mainly includes a sem...
