Specific embodiment
The present invention provides a kind of electrically conductive ink, and to form conductive layer in substrate surface, this electrically conductive ink includes bulk oil
Ink, substrate solvent and higher boiling ink.Main body ink accounts for the 60 to 95wt% of electrically conductive ink, and substrate solvent accounts for the 5 of electrically conductive ink
To 40wt%, higher boiling ink then accounts for the 5 to 30wt% of electrically conductive ink.In addition, main body ink further includes conductive particle and main body
Solvent, conductive particle accounts for the 70 to 80wt% of main body ink, and bulk solvent then accounts for the 20 to 30wt% of main body ink.
In the present embodiment, conductive particle is Argent grain, and so invention is not limited thereto, in other embodiments, conductive
Particle can be for example copper particle either other conductive materials.In addition, bulk solvent is selected from by polyalcohol and polyol ethers institute
At least one of group of composition, substrate solvent are selected from the group as composed by hydro carbons, esters, phenols, amides and ketone
At least one of.High boiling solvent is the solvent that boiling point is greater than 180 DEG C, can be selected from the group as composed by polyalcohol and polyol ethers
At least one of group.It should be noted that in the present embodiment, bulk solvent and high boiling solvent select property similar at
Point, at the chance analyzed when being used with reducing.
In actual use, user can first mix electrically conductive ink according to aforementioned proportion, and according to actual track
Design, in a manner of screen painting, dispensing or spraying, is formed in substrate surface for electrically conductive ink.And then it is coated with leading
The substrate of electric ink is sent into oven and is sintered, and after the completion of sintering, conductive layer be will form in substrate surface, to prepare circuit base
Plate.It should be noted that in the present embodiment, the material of substrate may include substantially aliphatic hydrocarbon polymer resin, polyamide, polyester
Or polyacrylate.
Specifically, since the material of substrate is largely high molecular polymer, when electrically conductive ink is formed in substrate surface
When, the substrate solvent in electrically conductive ink can dissolve substrate surface so that between the macromolecular chain of substrate surface, free volume,
Away from increase, therefore the main body ink in electrically conductive ink is easier insertion substrate surface.After oversintering, conductive layer is in substrate table
Therefore the adhesive force in face can increase.
In addition to this, the high boiling solvent in electrically conductive ink is mainly the evaporation rate to reduce substrate solvent.At this
In embodiment, substrate solvent selects the lower ingredient of boiling point, so that electrically conductive ink can permeate and be diffused into substrate surface.So
And low-boiling electrically conductive ink evaporation rate is very fast, and in actual use, if the time of applying conductive ink is longer, conductive oil
After the completion of ink may solidify before coating is completed, and then the uniformity for influencing electrically conductive ink coating is either sintered, lead
Electric layer is in the adhesive force of substrate.
In addition, the embodiment of the present invention is that electrically conductive ink is formed in substrate table in the way of printing, dispensing or spraying etc.
Face.In general, the output device of printing, dispensing or spraying, e.g. spray head are open smaller, electrically conductive ink may also can
Because of the too fast volatilization of bulk solvent and substrate solvent, and solidifies and be blocked in the output device of printing, dispensing or spraying, shadow
Ring the efficiency of coating.For this purpose, addition high boiling solvent can reduce the evaporation rate of substrate solvent, and then reduces electrically conductive ink and exist
During coating, the chance that solidifies or block.
It is noted that the amount of addition is controlled since high boiling solvent less easily volatilizees, such as
The content for being high boiling solvent can be less than substrate solvent, and electrically conductive ink is difficult to cured situation when reducing sintering.In fact, high
Boiling point solvent selective according to actual needs can make an addition in electrically conductive ink, in other embodiments, can not also add
High boiling solvent.And when electrically conductive ink does not add high boiling solvent, the preferred proportion of substrate solvent is to account for electrically conductive ink
8 to 25wt%.
It should be noted that being about 10 by the coating duration that electrically conductive ink is coated on substrate surface in the present embodiment
Minute.The temperature of sintering is about between 80 to 250 DEG C, and preferably sintering temperature is between 100 to 200 DEG C.In addition, preferably
Sintering temperature be 1 hour.
In addition, corresponding substrate solvent can be used for different substrate materials, to realize preferable solute effect.
For example, when the material of the substrate is substantially aliphatic hydrocarbon polymer resin, substrate solvent is selected from by aromatic hydrocarbon, halogenated hydrocarbons
And at least one of group composed by esters.When the material of substrate is polyamide, substrate solvent is selected from by phenols and acyl
At least one of group composed by amine.When the material of substrate be polyester when, substrate solvent be selected from by phenols, halogenated hydrocarbons and
At least one of group composed by amides.In addition, substrate solvent is choosing when the material of the substrate is polyacrylate
