TiO2 coating is the strategy to inhibit algae growth. However, high relative humidity results in decrease in photocatalytic activity, resulting in inefficient self-cleaning function35. As photocatalytic ability is decreased, TiO2 coating is unable to inhibit growth of algae resulting in green stains.
