▎ 摘  要

Conductive coatings can effectively prevent fires and explosions caused by electrostatic sparks, ensuring safety in production and life. However, the commonly used TiO(2 )has poor electrical conductivity. Herein, we employ mixed-phase TiO(2 )based on Ca/TiO2/graphene and dope Ca2+ into the TiO2 lattice. The results show that the Ca2+-doped mixed-phase TiO2/graphene composite (T-G-Ca) has excellent electrical conductivity with a minimum resistivity of 0.082 omega cm, which is 7 times higher than the electrical conductivity of single-crystal Ca/TiO2/ graphene (0.58 omega cm). The improved electrical conductivity is attributed to the easier electron-hole separation of mixed-phase TiO2 than single-crystal TiO2, especially the synergistic effect with Ca2+ that significantly increases the carrier concentration. Meanwhile, a new three-dimensional conductive path (Ca-O-C) is formed between graphene and Ca2+-doped mixed-phase TiO2, which effectively increases the interfacial charge transfer rate. It is the significant enhancement of both carrier concentration and charge transfer that leads to a significant decrease in resistivity. Therefore, T-G-Ca has potential applications in the field of conductive coatings.
