We show the fast preparation of printable highly conductive polymer nanocomposites for future low-cost electronics. Highly conductive polymer nanocomposites, consisting of an epoxy resin, silver flakes, and incorporated silver nanoparticles, have been prepared by fast sintering between silver flakes and the incorporated silver nanoparticles. The fast sintering is attributed to: 1) the thermal decomposition of silver carboxylate—which is present on the surface of the incorporated silver flakes—to form in situ highly reactive silver nanoparticles; 2) the surface activation of the incorporated silver nanoparticles by the removal of surface residues. As a result, polymer nanocomposites prepared at 230 °C for 5 min, at 260 °C for 10 min, and using a typical lead-free solder reflow process show electrical resistivities of 8.1 × 10−5, 6.0 × 10−6, and 6.3 × 10−5 Ω cm, respectively. The correlation between the rheological properties of the adhesive paste and the noncontact printing process has been discussed. With the optimal rheological properties, the formulated highly viscous pastes (221 mPa s at 2500 s−1) can be non-contact-printed into dot arrays with a radius of 130 μm. The noncontact printable polymer nanocomposites with superior electrical conductivity and fast processing are promising for the future of printed electronics.Keywords: conductive adhesive; interconnect; nanocomposite; printable; rheology; sintering
