Silver Conductive Adhesive Paste

Silver conductive adhesive paste, also known as conductive paint, is a material which is highly conductive. It looks like glue, but it is conductive and has a gray color. This innovative material is not only used in industry but also for research purposes. 
Main usage purpose of this material is to convert insulative surfaces into conductive surfaces. It is denoted by Ag, and it has purity of %75 so it is highly conductive electrically and thermally. As the name of the material implies, the adhesion of this material is high meaning that it can adheres to any surface easily.
It is the raw material for printable conductive ink which is mostly used in printed circuit boards (PCB). PCB’s are the main part of the computers, smartphones and many other devices so application field of silver conductive adhesive paste is broadened fort the past decades. 
One of the main advantages of this material is that it can be easily applied to surfaces that cannot be soldered. It quickly becomes dry after applying to the surface due to its volatile solvent base and becomes ready to use after short time application to the surface. In addition to these, its viscosity can be easily customized since it dissolves in suitable thinners readily. All these properties show that conductive silver adhesive paste is convenient in terms of application.

Carbon Nanotube Threads

Since its discovery, carbon nanotube (CNT) has attracted many interests in different technology fields due to its extraordinary properties. Properties such as, high strength, great electrical and thermal conductivity, light weight and flexibility made CNT one of the best materials for wide range of applications. However, from its name it can be understood that CNT is a nanoscale material which is very small to be applied for the production of daily products. Researchers all around the world are working on finding methods and techniques which could produce new materials with the extraordinary properties of CNT. Image retrieved from:  https://worldindustrialreporter.com/strong-light-flexible-carbon-nanotubes-threads-with-ultrahigh-conductivity/ One of these research is focusing on the production of high strength threads that can be used in the manufacturing of fabrics, cables and ropes. An international group of scientists were able to produce a flexible conductive thread that i

Multi Walled Carbon Nanotube Dispersions

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs)  have attracted enormous attention in recent years due to its unique physical, electronic, optical and potential applications in materials science and nanotechnology. The van der Waals interaction between tubes, however, makes CNTs aggregate in most organic solvents and aqueous solutions, which is the major limitation of their practical applications.Various approaches have been studied to alter the CNT surface to promote the dispersion of individual nanotubes and prevent their reaggregation. On the basis of this widely accepted viewpoint, numerous techniques such as covalent bonding, surfactant coating and polymer wrapping have been developed for surface modification or sidewall functionalization.These methods, however, are complicated, time-consuming and cause permanent damage to the CNT structure and properties of the surface, which produces residues of the dispersion agent for the final product.
