VISCOUS FUGITIVE POLYMER-BASED CARBON NANOTUBE COATINGS

Novel compositions comprising polymer solutions at various viscosities are provided. The polymer solutions are preferably fugitive, so as to avoid interfering with the properties of the nanomaterials after post-processing of the CNT-containing formulations. Additives, including acid generators, are...

Zusammenfassung:Novel compositions comprising polymer solutions at various viscosities are provided. The polymer solutions are preferably fugitive, so as to avoid interfering with the properties of the nanomaterials after post-processing of the CNT-containing formulations. Additives, including acid generators, are added to the polymer solutions in order to allow the polymer carrier solutions to be degraded or decomposed at temperatures low enough to allow processing of commonly-used polymer film substrates. The invention further allows the carbon nanotube solutions to be screen printed or printed via inkjet.
