Analysis of electrically conductive silver ink on stretchable substrates under tensile load |
Abstract | ||
|---|---|---|
Electrical conductors were printed by the screen printing method on stretchable PVC substrates and on fabrics. Polymer thick film silver ink was used as the conductive medium. The electrical performance and the structure of the ink film were investigated in unloaded conditions and under strain. In addition, the ink film morphology was examined. The goal of this study was to provide information for developing a strain sensor for large strain levels using the materials under investigation. An additional aim was to assist the integration of electronics into other structures. The results showed that strain sensitive structures can be made using the materials selected for this study and these materials provide an opportunity to develop strain sensors. The structures also tolerated large strain levels and thus they can be integrated into other materials which are exposed to strain. |
