    摘要: Provided herein is a composition for eutectic metal alloy nanoparticles having an average particle size ranging from about 0.5 nanometers to less than about 5000 nanometers and at least one organoamine stabilizer. Also provided herein is a process for preparing eutectic metal alloy nanoparticles comprising mixing at least one organic polar solvent, at least one organoamine stabilizer, and a eutectic metal alloy to create a mixture; sonicating the mixture at a temperature above the melting point of the eutectic metal alloy; and collecting a composition comprising a plurality of eutectic metal alloy nanoparticles having an average particle size ranging from about 0.5 nanometers to less than about 5000 nanometers. Further disclosed herein are hybrid conductive ink compositions comprising a component comprising a plurality of metal nanoparticles and a component comprising a plurality of eutectic metal alloy nanoparticles.

    摘要: Methods for printing a conductive object are provided which may comprise dispensing one of a first ink composition and a second ink composition towards a substrate surface to form a deposition region on the substrate surface or on a previously printed object on the substrate surface, wherein the first ink composition comprises an aqueous solution of a metal compound and the second ink composition comprises an aqueous solution of a stable free radical; dispensing the other of the first and second ink compositions in the deposition region to mix the first and second ink compositions and induce chemical reduction of the metal compound by the stable free radical and precipitation of the metal of the metal compound; and removing solvent from the deposition region, thereby forming a conductive object comprising the precipitated metal.

    摘要: An ink composition including a metal salt amine complex; wherein the metal salt amine complex is formed from a metal salt and an amine; a compound selected from the group consisting of a stable free radical, a photoacid generator, and a thermal acid generator; and an optional solvent. A process including forming a metal salt amine complex; adding a compound selected from the group consisting of a stable free radical, a photoacid generator, and a thermal acid generator to the metal salt amine complex to form an ink. A process including providing an ink composition comprising a metal salt amine complex, wherein the metal salt amine complex is formed from a metal salt and an amine; a compound selected from the group consisting of a stable free radical, a photoacid generator, and a thermal acid generator; and an optional solvent; depositing the ink composition onto a substrate to form deposited features; and treating the deposited features on the substrate to form conductive features on the substrate.
