Abstract

Herein we report the solution fabrication of highly conductive and bendable conductors based on Ag nanowires (NWs) embedded within a polyvinylidene fluoride matrix. A typical percolation behavior of electrical conductivity is observed due to the formation of a conductive network. The highest conductivity, 1.77 × 104 S cm−1, is achieved at 80 wt% Ag NWs and it remains nearly unchanged after 1000 bending events.
