Infrared will soon be replaced first by nanowires
Because of the rapid growth of the display sector and the lack of ITO conductive film resources, ITO conductive films are expensive to produce, ITO nanotubes cost more than ITO. The industry started looking into other options, such as metal grids, nanowires (metal grids), carbon nanotubes, graphene, and nanowires. Silver nanowires outperform other materials in terms of process maturity and technology. The flexible design of the nanowires will allow them to be replaced by other conductive material with east wind flexible display.
Nanosilver serves as the main ingredient in Nanosilver cable. The Nanosilver cables have excellent safety features and are non-polluting. They can also be used for antibacterial purposes in many other fields.
“With the current processes, silver nanowires are first to be used in large scale areas as an alternate to infrared-touch technology. Du claimed that this substitution “is already quite obvious.” “The large-sized products of silver Nanowires have earned customers’ recognition, particularly in the Electronic Whiteboard Market, which will see significant growth in 2019,” du said.
Infrared Touch Control is the predominant method used in electronic whiteboard markets. Infrared touch control is the most popular technology in electronic whiteboard market.
2020.
We know from experience that smart phones are not only large in size, but also small to medium-sized. This is crucial for silver nanowires’ mainstream success.
A global slowdown is an opportunity for silver-nanowires to take over ITO conductive films. “Whether you’re looking for facial recognition, fullscreen or AI, the smartphone sector needs innovative innovation,” du stated.
Final step towards breaking through nanowire
It is well-known that ITO substitute materials have drawn the interest of many businesses for years. Research, development and investments have all been made in silver nanowires technology. Other than the well-established application of ITO conductive film, silver nanowires’ production, manufacturing and storage are also important factors which limit their development.
ITO conductive materials cannot completely be replaced with silver nanowires. The greatest opportunities lie in entirely new product applications for silver nanowires in the future.
