TRANSPARENT CONDUCTIVE FILMS, COMPOSITIONS, ARTICLES, AND METHODS

摘要

Transparent conductive films, compositions, articles, and methods and disclosed and claimed. Improved abrasion resistance is provided without adversely affecting coating solution shelf life, film resistivity, or film light transmittance. Such films are useful in such articles as electronic displays, touch screens, and the like.

主权项

1. A method comprising:
aging a coating composition for at least about four hours to form an aged coating composition, said coating composition comprising at least one siloxane containing compound, at least one resin, and at least one metal nanoparticle; and forming a transparent conductive layer from the aged coating composition, wherein the transparent conductive layer comprises at least one of the following: a resistivity less than about 150 ohms/square, an abrasion resistance of at least about 3, or an ASTM D1003 haze value less than about 7%.
