    Abstract:

    Alumina (Al2O3) and silica (SiO2) were deposited on the surface of anatase titanium dioxide (TiO2) particles by chemical reactive deposition. Infrared absorption spectrum, X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy, transmission electron microscope, specific surface area test etc were used to characterize the morphology and structure properties of TiO2 particles. The results show that Al2O3, SiO2 and composite shell were deposited on the surface of TiO2 particles, forming porous shell, which improves the specific surface area, surface hydroxyl content and charge capacity of TiO2 particles. Solsperse17000 was used as surfactant, and the dispersion stability of particles in liquid medium was improved through its solvation chain effect. The white reflectivity of TiO2@Al2@Si2 particles with a 15% mass concentration in toluene, dodecylbenzene, tetrachloroethylene, cyclohexane and Isopar L can reach 49.11%, 49.11%, 48.18%, 53.91% and 54.43% respectively, which is 4%~8% higher than that of raw TiO2 material. Apply TiO2@Al2@Si2 particles into electrophoretic display devices, the white reflectivity can reach 40.47% and contrast ratio can reach 59.51.
