Abstract
- A biodegradable polyvinyl alcohol and silver nanowires (AgNWs) have been mixed together with a simple one-step blending method to form a hybrid electrical compositor. Super flexible and highly conductive electrical compositors were successfully developed with an AgNWs content of 80%, in which hundreds, even thousands of AgNWs stacked into a “Chrysanthemum petal” order to exhibit high electrical conductivity of 17 390 S cm−1. The high conductivity corresponded to the formation of a large amount of electrically conductive networks and channels. The conductively electrical compositor can be made into various shapes and can be used on any substrate with different curved surfaces because the compositor ink is so stable and can be stored for a long time without other additives. The compositor is expected to have great potential application in flexible electronics, especially in those fields associated with biology, medicine, food, and life.
