Strontium titanate ([Formula: see text] has the advantages of being non-toxic, environmentally friendly and high-temperature stable, and has potential application in waste heat power generation at medium and high temperature. To explore the impact of TiO2 on the thermoelectric properties of SrTiO3, we synthesized TiO2/La10Nbb10-STO composite powders by hydrothermal method using precursor solution of 10[Formula: see text]mol.% La and 10[Formula: see text]mol.% Nb co-doped STO (La10Nb10-STO) containing TiO2 nanopowders with different molar ratio. After cold pressing and sintering, composite bulk materials were obtained, and their microstructure and thermoelectric transport properties were analyzed. With the increasing TiO2, although the thermal conductivity of TiO2/La10Nb10-STO composite decreased and the Seebeck coefficient increased, the minimum thermal conductivity and the maximum Seebeck coefficient were 2.54[Formula: see text][Formula: see text][Formula: see text] and 215[Formula: see text][Formula: see text]V[Formula: see text][Formula: see text], respectively, at 1000[Formula: see text]K, but the power factor decreased at high temperature due to the apparent decrease of electrical conductivity, resulting in the ZT values being lower than that of La0Nb10-STO without TiO2 addition at high temperature. Significantly, the addition of TiO2 can improve the thermoelectric performance of strontium titanate at low temperature. This approach is expected to improve the ZT of SrTiO3-based thermoelectric material through additional controlling of electrical conductivity.
