As the demand for wearable and stretchable electronics continues to expand, the need for advanced conductive inks capable of withstanding mechanical deformation and environmental exposure becomes increasingly critical. Printed electronics play a vital role in enabling flexible and stretchable devices, but traditional conductive inks often struggle to maintain performance under repeated stretching, bending, and washing. Developing a next-generation conductive ink that meets these rigorous requirements presents significant challenges in material formulation, adhesion, and conductivity retention.
This talk will explore the key considerations in designing a robust conductive ink tailored for wearable and stretchable applications. It will address the challenges of achieving optimal stretchability and durability while maintaining reliable electrical performance. By examining innovations in material science and printing techniques, this discussion will highlight how these advancements are shaping the future of flexible and wearable electronic devices.
