Abstract [eng] Textile-based solar thermal energy collectors (TSTEC) are one form of novel flexible solar thermal harvesting product, and one that can widely be applied to building roofs and facades [1]. Thin film metal oxides are superior solar light absorbers. Many of the metal oxides are n-type semiconductors. Known p-type oxides include silver (I) oxide. They can be combined into a functional material when deposited on polymeric substrates. The optical band gap for Ag2O ranges from 1.2 eV [2] to 3.4 eV [3] depending on the stoichiometry, structure and physical properties that result from the deposition method. In this study, silver oxide films were synthesised on a polyvinylchloride textile (PVC), and an investigation was carried out into the structural and optical properties of the treated fabric. The chemical deposition method was used to modify the PVC textile surface. Ag2O can be prepared by combining aqueous solutions of AgNO3 and NaOH: [...].
