Titanium oxide films.

From: Paint & Coatings Industry | Date: September 1, 2002 | Copyright information

Titanium oxide films have been shown to be effective coatings for protecting plastics, metal and glass from corrosion and ultraviolet (UV) light. But many manufacturers have shied away from this useful coating due to the costly and complicated process needed to produce it.

Researchers at the Department of Energy's Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) have developed a simple and inexpensive process for producing titanium oxide coatings based on solution deposition...
