Original Abstract

An optimized reverse micelles sol-gel composition was deposited by inkjet direct patterning onto glass supports. Experimental material printer Fujifilm Dimatix 2831 was used for sol patterning. Printing was repeated up to 4 times in wet-to-dry manner and photocatalytic coatings of various thickness were obtained after final thermal calcination. Basic material properties of prepared coating were studied by optical microscopy, electron and atomic force imaging, Raman, XRD and UV-VIS spectrometry. Photocatalytic activity was evaluated by dye and fatty acid degradation rate as well as photoinduced hydrophilic conversion rate. Reverse micelles proved to be viable synthetic route for the preparation of titania coatings with even structure and their compatibility with inkjet direct patterning deposition was demonstrated.
