Abstract

Composite materials with good electrical conductivity at low metal loadings are prepared using flowable, curable ink compositions that include polymer matrix precursor, silver nanowires, and reducible metal ions such as silver ions. The composite materials as electrically conductive structures can include up to about 20 wt % total metal and exhibit resistivity of no more than about 500 Ohm-cm. The electrically conductive structures can be designed to exhibit a variety of performance features, for example, the structures can be opaque or translucent, or they can have a total transmittance of visible light of at least about 80%.
