Abstract

Large-scale silver nanoparticles with fine dispersion and narrow size distribution were synthesized by reducing silver nitrate with sodium borohydride and sodium citrate and using poly (vinylpyrrolidone) as an adsorption agent in the ethanol solution. The sintering behavior and electrical properties of silver nanoparticles treated with and without glutaric acid were studied. Morphology studies showed that the treated silver nanoparticles obviously agglomerated and began to sinter at 200 °C and the sintering temperature is higher at least 50 degrees than that of the untreated silver nanoparticles The treated silver nanoparticles as fillers of electronically conductive adhesives (ECAs) is more advantageous to the increase of the conductivity. Otherwise, only in the conditions of the appropriate sintering temperature and loading of silver nanoparticles, the high conductivity of the ECAs was obtained. The effect of the treated silver nanoparticles on the electrical properties contributes to the surface activation and sintering behavior.Keywords: Silver nanoparticle, Sintering Behavior, Surface treatment, Electrical property
