Silver Nanowire

Asahi Silver Nanowires (AgNW) is designed to have high aspect ratio with high conductivity, a key coating material in the fabrication of transparent conductors in various polymeric substrates. The innovation is an alternative to indium tin oxide (ITO), which has been used extensively as transparent conductor in touch panel displays, liquid crystals displays, electroluminescent lighting, organic light-emitting diode devices, and photovoltaic solar cells.
Asahi provides AgNW in different formulations to meet the customers’ needs. AgNW can be obtained in form of a concentrate or as ready-to-use coatings for a wide variety of substrates.
