Conductive ink

When common insulating resins, elastomers, or binders are used as the matrix, the continuous polymer phase usually lacks an effective pathway for electron transport. After a small amount of graphene, carbon nanotubes, or carbon black is added, the material still remains close to insulating.

The emerging field of printed electronics requires a suite of functional materials for applications including flexible and large-area displays,radio frequency identification tags, portable energy harvesting and storage,biomedical and environmental sensor arrays,and logic circuits. To enable ...
