C3Nano CTO To Present at TechBlick Innovations Festival
What: Dr. Ajay Virkar of C3Nano will present on “Unlocking the Full Potential of Silver Nanowires: Highly Conductive Inks and Composites“
Where: Virtual
When: 18:52 Berlin Time
Abstract:
Silver Nanowires (AgNWs) have long been recognized as excellent building blocks for transparent conductive inks and coatings, but recent proprietary breakthroughs by C3Nano have led to the development of new classes of highly concentrated AgNW-based inks and dispersions with exceptional properties. In this talk, we will describe the advantages of NWs as conductive fillers in inks and composites over conventional fillers like silver nanoparticles, flakes, and carbon black/nanotubes. We will showcase AgNW-based model electrically conductive adhesives (ECAs) and C3Nano’s SuperGrid™ ink, which demonstrate remarkable conductivity, flexibility, and substantial processing advantages over existing technologies. Additionally, C3Nano has created totally new types of highly loaded and formable AgNW-based dispersions that exhibit low volume resistivities despite containing high amounts of solvents. This unique material holds potential applications in component shielding, soft and stretchable electronics, medical devices, and robotics to name a few. Join us to discover how these advancements are unlocking the full potential of silver nanowires and changing the landscape of and possibilities of conductive materials and electronics.

Where: ITRI, 2880 Zanker Road, Suite 103, San Jose, CA 95134
When: 6:00 pm on November 9, 2022
Abstract:
C3Nano’s platform technology is being utilized to empower a wide variety of electronics ranging from smartphones and switchable windows to biomedical devices and transparent heaters for automotive applications. C3Nano will discuss this platform consisting of the highest quality and scale Silver Nanowires (AgNWs), Noble metal-coated Ultra-Nanowires™ with unprecedented stability and reliability, and its best-in-class ActiveGrid™ inks and coatings. These conductive coatings have outstanding flexibility and mechanical properties and are compatible with a broad array of flexible, stretchable, and formable substrates. C3Nano will also describe a recent technology breakthrough wherein its new ActiveGrid™ LT ink series can be cured at room temperature incredibly quickly (~25 C for ~ 1 min) to impart electrical conductivity on a variety of low Tg, soft, bio-compatible, and low-cost substrates targeting novel applications in displays, life-sciences, smart-packaging, and anti-statics. We will also describe how our NWs (and Ultra-NWs) are ideal materials for conductive fillers – achieving excellent conductivities at extremely low volume fractions (loadings) unlocking broad new applications and potentials in the multibillion-dollar conductive composites, adhesives and 3D-printing markets. Finally, C3Nano will discuss its some of its current commercial traction and how its technology platform is being used to generate smart surfaces and new functionalities in several of the aforementioned sectors. The ability to add electrical conductivity by depositing ActiveGrid ink as ultrathin layers on substrates, or by addition of low volume fractions of Nanowires and Ultra-Nanowires into composites, can liberate the imagination to enable new transformative displays, devices, and HMI experiences.
C3Nano VP of Business Operations To Speak at Flex Conference & Exhibition
What: Dr. Xiaofeng Chen of C3Nano will present on “Advanced Materials Enabling Next Generation Design for Flexible, Foldable, and Rollable Display”
Where: Moscone Center, Room 11, San Francisco, CA
When: 10:15 am on July 14, 2022
C3Nano, The Performance Leader in Transparent Conductive Inks and Films used in flexible displays, touchscreens, and other products, announced that its VP of Business Operations, Dr. Xiaofeng Chen, will present on “Advanced Materials Enabling Next Generation Design for Flexible, Foldable, and Rollable Display” at Flex Conference & Exhibition at the Moscone Center, San Francisco, CA on July 14th at 10:15 am Room 11.
C3Nano’s patented Gen 8 is the highest performing flexible transparent conductive film technology, employs proprietary chemical sintering agent, NanoGlue™ , that fuses nanowires into a nanoscale metallic grid upon coating and drying. The fusing is achieved by the selective nucleation of the conductor at the junctions between nanowires. The ability to deliver the minimal amount of metal (due to fusing at the high resistance junctions) and still achieve low resistances engenders ultra-low haze transparent conductors which are being integrated into a variety of touch sensors and displays. The nanoscale nature of the material allows for outstanding flexibility and robustness, while a flexible hardcoat film provides excellent scratch resistance, and flexibility.
