A positive temperature coefficient component includes: a substrate (); a conductive ink () disposed over at least a portion of the substrate (); a positive temperature coefficient layer () disposed over at least a portion of the substrate () and/or the conductive ink (); and a topcoat layer () formed from a coating composition including a dielectric material disposed over at least a portion of the positive temperature coefficient layer () and/or the conductive ink ().

Positive temperature coefficient component

An electrically or thermally conductive polymer composition, includes: a polyester polymer having a backbone including at least 12 consecutive carbon atoms between ester linkages; and conductive particles dispersed in the polyester polymer. A component including an electrically or thermally conductive polymer composition is also disclosed. A method for self-regulating a temperature of a component is also disclosed.

Conductive polymer composition

A patterning paste is disclosed for patterning metal nanowires, the patterning paste including a complexing agent containing guanidine thiocyanate. A method of selectively patterning a substrate having metal nanowires includes: providing a substrate having a surface bearing metal nanowires; and selectively applying the patterning paste to the substrate such that the metal nanowires are selectively cut into a pattern. A consumer electronic product includes: a substrate having a surface bearing metal nanowires. The metal nanowires of the substrate are selectively patterned by applying the patterning paste to the substrate such that the metal nanowires are selectively cut into the pattern.
