Abstract

In this work, we present the development of conductive graphene waterbased inks suitable for printing of several themes on different kinds of papers based on flexography and screen printing techniques. The inks were prepared by a hydrophilic graphene/carbon nanotube hybrid and suitable mixtures of resins. The as-prepared conductive inks were stable, highly conductive and their printing quality was comparable with that of conventional commercial inks. Especially, for flexography, the relationship between printing quality and the ink-carrying volume of the cells of the anilox roll and the pre-inking was investigated.
