Silver nanowires-polyethylene terephthalate transparent conductive film

A novel kind of transparent conductive film was prepared by coating silver nanowires solution on polyethylene terephthalate (PET) surface and then heating pressing under a flat heating pressure. The bending resistant performance, the transmission ratio and surface resistivity of the conductive film were studied. Results show that the transmission ratio and surface resistivity of the silver nanowire-PET transparent conductive films could reach to 80% and 1×10^-3 Ω·cm, respectively. Surface conductivity has not changed under 500 cycles bending measurement. The transmission ratio of silver nanowire-PET transparent conductive films decreases with increasing the content of silver nanowires in solution, while the surface resistivity is improved.
