IMPROVED CONDUCTIVE INK COMPOSITIONS

Abstract: improved conductive ink compositions are provided. the improved conductive ink compositions include a silver complex formed by mixing a silver carboxy late, specifically a silver decanoate isomer, and at least one dissolving agent, in particular where the at least one dissolving agent comprises a terpene, a terpenoid; or a combination thereof. the silver carboxy late of the subject ink compositions is decarboxylated at a temperature of 250� c. or less, optionally in the presence of an adhesion promoter and/or an acid stabilizer, to form a conductive structure. methods of making conductive structures, including methods wherein the disclosed compositions are applied to a substrate by various techniques, are also provided.
