| Abstract Scope |
Cu NWs have emerged as a promising alternative to Ag NWs due to its high intrinsic conductivity, high abundance, and low cost. The synthesis literature of Cu NWs is very sufficient now. The most well-known one is hydrothermal which mainly by adding copper precursors, reducing agents and solvent, and capping agents or facet-selective promoters reacted at the high temperature. However, the current synthesis methods are all carried out at low concentrations, and the high-yield methods are often used by increasing the reaction volume, which does not effectively improve the use efficiency of the reactor. Both above result in the high cost and difficulty applying in the industry. Therefore, a kind of hydrothermal method controlling the kinetics of the synthesis process is proposed here to effectively increase the reaction concentration in the reaction process to increase the productivity per unit volume, so as to synthesize low aspect ratio Cu NWs. |
