Silver Conductive Adhesive Paste: Descriptions, Electrical Usage and Applications

Conductive adhesive paste is the glue form of conductive adhesive, and more advantageous than soldering processes. Since it is more flexible than solder, it is able to cope with vibrations better, and its curing temperature is below the soldering temperature which is important when soldering temperature can be harmful for substrates, so conductive adhesive paste is excellent way for electrical connections on temperature-sensitive substrates, and components. Silver conductive adhesive paste is the most conductive one in conductive adhesives, and circuit resistivity 8.0x10-6Ω cm for highly conductive paste. Therefore, it is commonly used in applications in which low electrical resistance needed.

Although it is expensive for use in solar panels, low resistivity prevent loss of power, so it increase the effectivity. In terms of strength, silver conductive adhesive paste increase the lifetime of solar cells, so that makes it crucial for reliability of solar panels since manufacturers want to provide 25-year warranties. As an applications, in order to reduce the power loss to minimum in dye-sensitized solar cell caused by increase of battery resistance while it is charging, silver conductive adhesive paste have been used for current collection wiring of transparent conductive glass substrate. To support this application, a group tested the silver adhesive conductive paste with conventional sintering type in the table below.

Low resistivity, and mechanical properties of silver conductive adhesive paste allow it to construct many different connection construction. In addition, they can be used for surface mount to replace solder pastes, since they are low in weight and requires less volume than thin solders. For example, in a case study, to construct Z-axis interconnecting for a flip-chip plastic ball grid array package with a 150 µm die pad pitch, they used a silver filled conductive adhesive, they concluded that it maintained strength after 1000 cycle of thermal cycling from -55° C to 120°C.
Despite the fact that silver conductive adhesive paste is expensive to make ordinary connections, low resistivity, flexibility, low curing temperature, form an exclusive access to efficiency and effectivity. As a result, it is necessary for research which electrical qualities considered.

Hydroxyapatite Nanopowders and Their Applications

Hydroxyapatite, is a naturally occurring mineral form of calcium apatite with the formula Ca 5 (PO 4 ) 3 (OH). Pure hydroxyapatite powder is white. Naturally occurring apatites can, however, also have brown, yellow, or green colorations, comparable to the discolorations of dental fluorosis. Hydroxyapatite Nanopowder/Nanoparticles (50 nm, 99.95+%)  has been widely used as a biocompatible ceramic in many areas of medicine, but mainly for contact with bone tissue, due to its resemblance to mineral bone. In mammals, the skeleton presents a carbonated and partially substituted apatite, based on nanocrystal aggregates, and associated with collagen, building up 3-D structures present in various bone tissue conformations like trabecular or cancellous bone. There has been growing interest in developing bioactive synthetic ceramics that could closely mimic natural apatite characteristics. As mentioned before,  Hydroxyapatite Nanopowder  is the main inorganic constituent of bon...
