Zr-Nanoxide Z/SP

Zr-Nanoxide Z/SP is a zirconium dioxide paste that forms a porous and electrically insulating layer after firing at 475°C. It is intended to act as an insulating and reflective spacer layer on a pre-existing nanostructured TiO₂ electrode in monolithic assemblies.

The resulting zirconium dioxide layers are opaque white and exhibit minimal dye uptake. Titania staining can be realized in the presence of a zirconia layer, thanks to its porous structure which allows the dye solution to penetrate.

Zr-Nanoxide Z/SP is suitable for screen-printing or slot-coating (doctor-blade). When using screen-printing, we recommend a 61-64 mesh (61 threads/cm, 64 !m thread diameter) stencil.

Intended for :

screen-printing, blade coating

Concentration :

~30 % wt.

Particle size :
