Product Information

Copper nanowires are innovative materials characterized by their unique properties, including excellent electrical conductivity, flexibility, and high aspect ratio, making them ideal for a variety of applications in advanced electronics and nanotechnology. With a diameter of approximately 300±100 nm and lengths reaching up to 5 microns, these nanowires are particularly valuable in the development of transparent conductive films, which are essential for touch screens, solar cells, and flexible displays. Their superior conductivity compared to traditional materials like indium tin oxide (ITO) positions copper nanowires as a cost-effective alternative, enabling researchers and manufacturers to explore new frontiers in electronic device fabrication.

In addition to their use in electronics, copper nanowires also hold promise in fields such as sensors and energy storage, where their high surface area can enhance performance. They can be incorporated into composite materials to improve mechanical strength and conductivity, making them suitable for applications in automotive and aerospace industries. As the demand for lightweight, efficient, and sustainable materials continues to grow, copper nanowires stand out as a versatile solution that meets the needs of modern technology.
