Flexible touch technology is developing rapidly, and innovative materials are needed in the future

The times are developing and society is progressing! The speed of product replacement in the current market is too fast, which can be seen from the rapid iteration of mobile phones. When Nokia was popular, it was unimaginable that after the emergence of Apple mobile phones based on ITO materials, capacitive screens replaced resistive screens, and keypad phones gradually faded in the market. With the advent of a new wave of innovative technologies, the traditional manufacturing industry is facing a wave of innovation!

As time goes by, the development of terminal devices such as smart phones and tablets has become very mature, and the competition among branded mobile phone companies is very fierce. Traditional ITO electrode materials have been stably used in small-sized capacitive screens. It is currently impossible to replace traditional ITO materials with new materials such as graphene and nano silver wires. Innovative companies need to apply graphene and nano silver wires to areas that ITO cannot reach, such as the teaching and conference touch screen market, smart home, etc. These market application prospects are very broad and have huge potential in the future.

In addition, most companies use nano silver wires as flexible electrode materials, mainly to solve the touch technology of large-size screens. With the commercialization of 5G technology and the development of new technologies such as VR, AR, and the Internet of Things, many terminal devices require human-computer interaction application scenarios. New technologies such as artificial intelligence and human-computer interaction will change the future industrial landscape and become the driving force for the transformation and upgrading of Chinese companies.

With the popularization of communication technology and Internet big data, the development trend of large-size flexible touch is fierce, and traditional ITO electrode materials cannot meet the needs of market development. Nano silver wires have excellent properties, such as high conductivity, low square resistance, high light transmittance, and excellent flexibility. In addition, the raw materials of nano silver wires are widely available and the production cost is low, which greatly reduces the production cost. Therefore, nano silver wires are praised by industry insiders as high-quality alternative materials.

Although the market touts the many advantages of using nano silver wires in large-size touch screens, these are just the tip of the iceberg. In the future, flexible touch will be a vast blue ocean for nano silver wires. Once foldable screen phones are sold in the market, it will bring huge shocks to the entire mobile phone industry chain, prompting mobile phone manufacturers to transform their mobile phones and not be eliminated by the waves.
