Description
Silver Nanowires Suspension in Ethanol
Purity: >99 wt% | Diameter: ~50 nm | Length: ~8 µm | Solvent: Ethanol
Silver nanowires (AgNWs) are among the most promising 1D nanostructures due to silver’s unmatched electrical and thermal conductivity. Thanks to their high aspect ratio, narrow diameter distribution, and flexibility, silver nanowire networks are widely studied as alternatives to traditional indium tin oxide (ITO) coatings for transparent conductive applications.
These nanowires are typically synthesized using the polyol process, which yields uniform, high-purity structures with superior performance. Dispersed in ethanol at controlled concentration, this suspension is ideal for scalable fabrication in electronic, optical, and biomedical applications.
