Millifluidic polyol synthesis of Ag nanowires and microplotter printing of transparent conductive films

Millifluidic polyol synthesis teflon tube (i.d. 1 mm) was studied and used to obtain silver nanowire dispersions. As a result of the experiments, the optimal concentrations of the reagents (silver nitrate AgNO₃, ethylene glycol and  polyvinylpyrrolidone) were investigated and found to obtain homogeneous nanowires with high length-to-diameter ratios. As a result of the synthesis, Ag nanowires were obtained, which were used to form transparent conductive electrodes using microplotter printing. Transparent conductive electrodes with high transparency of more than 80% at a wavelength of 550 nm with a surface resistance of 52-229 Ohm/sq.
