Organohalogen compounds with boiling points less than about 150°C encourage a minimum residue in the cured conductive ink.
- the organohalogen compound is useful to improve the electrical conductivity of the composition and to maintain the electrical conductivity while reducing the loading of the metal component.
- the organohalogen compound is useful to improve the electrical conductivity of the composition and to maintain the electrical conductivity while reducing the loading of the metal component.
- the dilution should be about 1 part of the composition to about 5 parts of solvent.
- Many solvents are suitable for use in the inventive compositions, provided the chosen solvent is compatible with the organohalogen compound.
- inventive conductive compositions are suitable for applications where high electrical conductivity is required on plastic or other substrates, such as PET and PC.
- a composition was prepared by mixing nano-particle silver (7K-35, with a surfactant alcohol solvent, known as DOWANOL, from Ferro Corporation, OH) into a polymethyl methacrylate emulsion (10% PMMA in water, with a PMMA average particle size of 61 nm, from Magsphere Corporation, CA).
- a sintering aid, H3PO4 (10% by weight in water) was added to Sample No. 1 and then mixed at 3000 rpm for 60 seconds.
- Control 1 was used to compare performance relative to Sample No. 1.
- Scanning Electron Microscope (“SEM”) images were acquired using Hitachi field emission SEM model S-4500, and are presented in FIG. 1.
- compositions in Table 1 were each applied to glass slides, and prepared as set forth herein, so that volume resistivity measurements could be made.
- Table 1A shows volume resistivity (in ohm-cm ) measurements for Control 1 and the inventive composition, Sample No. 1 , which are each set forth above in Table 1.
- the compositions were prepared at a temperature of 120°C for a period of time of 30 minutes.
- Table 1A show that the PMMA emulsion and sintering aid (aqueous H3PO4) decreases the volume resistivity (Sample No. 1) while the control (nano silver paste only) had higher volume resistivity after each was heated at a temperature of 120°C for a period of 30 minutes.
- the addition of PMMA emulsion and H3PO4 improved the electrical conductivity of the silver ink over 10 orders of magnitude.
- compositions were prepared by mixing nano-particle silver (7K-35, from Ferro Corporation, Mayfield Heights, OH) into a polystyrene emulsion (10% PSt in water, with a PSt average particle size that varied from 62 nm, 200 nm and 600 nm, from Magsphere Corporation, Pasadena, CA).
- a sintering aid, H3PO4 (10% by weight in water) was added to Sample Nos. 3, 4 and 5 and then mixed at 3000 rpm for a period of time of 60 seconds.
- the so-formed compositions were used for preparing test specimens.

- Table 2A shows that the sintering aid (aqueous H3P0 ) decreases the volume resistivity of silver ink formulated with PSt emulsions (Sample Nos. 2, 3 and 4) while the control (without the sintering aid, H3PO4) had higher volume resistivity after curing at a temperature of 120°C for a period of time of 30 minutes.
- the addition of sintering aid H3PO4 improved the electrical conductivity of the silver ink compositions with each of the PSt emulsions with different particle sizes (i.e., 62 nm, 200 nm, 600 nm).
- the inventive compositions have better electrical conductivity performance than the control composition.
- a smaller particle size of PSt in the emulsion seems to be desirable to achieve excellent volume resistivity performance.

- Two different sintering aids were chosen -- H3PO4 and Kl (each 10% by weight in water). The sintering aids were added to Sample Nos. 5 and 6 and then mixed at 3000 rpm for 60 seconds. The so-formed compositions were used for preparing test specimens. Table 3
- Table 3A shows volume resistivity (in ohm cm) measurements for two inventive compositions, Sample Nos. 5 and 6, which are each set forth above in Table 3. The compositions were cured at a lower temperature than earlier - a temperature of 80°C instead of 120°C - for a period of time of 30 minutes.
- Table 3A shows that each of the polymer emulsion and sintering aid combinations decreases the volume resistivity of silver nano particle coatings (Sample Nos. 5 and 6), compared to Control 1 (Table 1A).
- Example 4 shows that each of the polymer emulsion and sintering aid combinations decreases the volume resistivity of silver nano particle coatings (Sample Nos. 5 and 6), compared to Control 1 (Table 1A).
- lodine-grafted PMMA had formed and was dried at a temperature of 100°C, resulting in a yield of 47%.
- Mw weight average molecular weight
- polydispersity Mw/Mn, was about 3.3.
- the emulsion particle size was measured with a HORIBA LA-910 instrument, and the median size determined to be about 85 nm.
- the iodine-grafted PMMA from Example 4 was used to prepare a composition with nano-particle silver (7K-35) to form an emulsion.
- the emulsion contained the iodine-grafted PMMA, in an amount of slightly over 55% by weight of the composition. No additional sintering aid was added; rather, the iodine-grafted PMMA acted both as a binder and as a sintering aid.
- the composition was mixed at 3000 rpm for a period of time of 60 seconds, and then used to prepare test specimens.
- Table 4A shows volume resistivity measurements (in ohm -cm) for the inventive compositions, Sample Nos. 5 and 7. The compositions were prepared at the different temperatures - room temperature for a period of time of 20 hours and 80°C for a period of time of 30 minutes. Table 4A
- Table 4A shows that the compositions demonstrated a decreased volume resistivity compared to Control 1 (Table 1A), irrespective of the temperature and time used to cure the composition.
- compositions were prepared by mixing nano-particle silver (7K-35, from Ferro Corporation) into a polystyrene emulsion (49% PSt in water, from Arkema Inc., Cary, NC).
- a sintering aid, Kl (3.5% by weight in water) was added to Sample No. 8 while to the control 3 was added D.I water instead, and they were mixed at 3000 rpm for 60 seconds.
- the so-formed compositions were used for preparing test specimens.
- Table 5A shows volume resistivity (in ohm-cm) measurements for two compositions, Control 3 and Sample No. 8, which are each set forth above in Table 5. The compositions were heated at a temperature of 100°C for a period of time of 30 minutes.
- Table 5A shows that the addition of the sintering aid, Kl, decreases the volume resistivity of Sample No. 8, compared to Control 3.
- compositions were prepared by mixing nano-particle silver (7K-35, from Ferro Corporation) into a polystyrene emulsion (49% PSt in water, from Arkema Inc.). Sintering aids, 2-iodoethanol (5.0% by weight in water) and iodoacetamide (7.0% by weight in water), were added to Sample Nos. 9 and 10, respectively, and they were mixed at 3000 rpm for 60 seconds. The so-formed compositions were used for preparing test specimens.
- Table 6A shows volume resistivity (in ohm-cm) measurements for two compositions, Sample Nos. 9 and 0, which are each set forth above in Table 6. The compositions were heated at a temperature of 80°C for a period of time of 30 minutes.
- Table 6A shows that the addition of organo iodide compounds as conductivity promoters decreases the volume resistivity of Sample Nos. 9 and 10, compared to Control 3.
