Opportunity: Development of cheaper alternatives to silver-based conductive inks
There is a need for more economical alternatives to silver-based conductive inks owing to the rising prices of silver. Graphene-based conductive inks have come up as an alternative. Graphene is a single layer of carbon atoms and is the most conductive form of carbon. It can provide mechanical flexibility and high performance at a low cost and can help in protecting metals from corrosion. Graphene-based conductive inks can be used in complex devices to achieve high conductivity even at intricate levels.
The silver conductive inks segment is projected to account for the largest share during the forecast period.
The silver conductive inks segment is projected to account for the largest market share, in terms of value, during the forecast period. Apart from being a good conductor, silver offers a conductive native oxide layer, which usually forms on the surface, unlike other metals. With advancing technological advancements, conductive silver inks are compatible with almost every printing technique, such as inkjet, screen, gravure, and flexography. The various properties, which make silver a suitable candidate for the manufacturing e of conductive inks include strength, corrosion resistance, and unaffected by moisture resistance.
APAC conductive inks market is projected to account for the largest market share during the forecast period.
APAC is estimated to be the leading conductive inks market. The growth in the region can be attributed to the growing demand for conductive inks from various applications such as photovoltaics, RFID, PCB, membrane switches, displays, bio-sensors, thermal heating, and others. The growth of these end-uses is expected to consequently drive the demand for conductive inks.
