Abstract
antimony-doped tin oxide and tin-doped indium oxide coatings were prepared from sols using a spray coating procedure. Coatings prepared from ethanolic sols exhibited high surface roughness. Adding butanediole to the sols, how ever, resulted in smooth layers. Supposedly, butanediole prevents the evapo ration of high quantities of ethanol from the surface of the droplets initi ally formed during spraying. The electrical conductivity of the layers form ed is in the same range as those of dip coatings.
