Beyond traditional coatings: TiO₂'s expanding role in batteries, solar cells, and hydrogen production.
Titanium dioxide is evolving from a passive pigment to an active enabler of energy technologies. In lithium-ion batteries, nano-TiO₂ coatings on anodes improve cycle life by up to 30%. In perovskite solar cells, TiO₂ electron transport layers achieve efficiencies exceeding 25%. Additionally, TiO₂-based photocatalysts enable solar-to-hydrogen conversion, positioning TiO₂ as a key material in the global energy transition.
