Description

纳米氧化铜的制备方法以及金属基油墨的印刷方法Preparation method of nano-copper oxide and printing method of metal-based ink

技术领域technical field

本发明涉及一种纳米氧化铜的制备方法,以及采用制得的纳米氧化铜的金属基油墨的印刷方法。The invention relates to a preparation method of nanometer copper oxide and a printing method of metal-based ink using the prepared nanometer copper oxide.

背景技术Background technique

纳米氧化铜颗粒,由于其小尺寸效应,宏观量子隧道效应、表面效应、体积效应的影响,将会显现出独特的性能,在光吸收、电化学、催化反应、储能材料等方面表现出特殊的物化性能,使其应用领域更加广泛。但是,单分散的小尺寸氧化铜制备困难,方法麻烦,常需要有机溶剂或高温高压反应条件下才能微量制备。Nano-copper oxide particles, due to their small size effect, macroscopic quantum tunneling effect, surface effect, and volume effect, will show unique properties, and show special performance in light absorption, electrochemistry, catalytic reactions, and energy storage materials. The physical and chemical properties make it more widely used. However, it is difficult to prepare monodisperse small-sized copper oxide, and the method is cumbersome, and organic solvents or high-temperature and high-pressure reaction conditions are often required for micro-preparation.

在金属基油墨中,纳米银导电油墨水因其价格高和银迁移等缺陷,发展受到一定限制。铜油墨导电性优良,并且成本比银低,纳米铜基导电油墨代替传统的化学蚀刻(或激光蚀刻)或电镀工艺,不仅能显著降低成本而且可以绿色环保的印制电子,这对于印刷电路板(PCB)、电子标签(RFID)、触摸屏、薄膜开关、太阳能电池、LED/OLED等诸多行业和领域具有示范意义,使这些行业在电子电路技术方面实现从传统的蚀刻、电镀工艺向绿色环保的印制电子工艺的转变,大幅度提升行业技术水平。Among the metal-based inks, the development of nano-silver conductive ink is limited due to its high price and defects such as silver migration. Copper ink has excellent conductivity and lower cost than silver. Nano-copper-based conductive ink replaces traditional chemical etching (or laser etching) or electroplating process, which can not only significantly reduce costs but also print electronics in a green and environmentally friendly way, which is very important for printed circuit boards. (PCB), electronic tags (RFID), touch screens, membrane switches, solar cells, LED/OLED and many other industries and fields have demonstration significance, enabling these industries to realize the transformation from traditional etching and electroplating processes to green environmental protection in terms of electronic circuit technology. The transformation of printed electronics technology has greatly improved the technical level of the industry.
