Within the silver film. On the other hand, it nanoparticles.not seemthe temperature increased toas is usually expected from higher resistivity. As does When sufficient to crystalize silver film 120 C, some chemical reactions likethe temperature additional increased to 150 , the resistivity decreased substantially. Although the temperature was not over 160 (ethylene glycol’s dehydration temperature), the film could evaporate ethylene glycol for a long time, and there could be chemical reaction, which appears capable of Cephapirin (sodium) MedChemExpress crystalizing it. Ag thin film thermally treated at 150 for 50 min exhibited the resistivity of two.06 10-4 m.For superior electrical properties, all solvents inside the silver thin film should be eliminated.DTG (g/min)Nanomaterials 2021, 11,six ofNanomaterials 2021, 11, xNanomaterials 2021, 11, xethylene glycol’s dehydration and evaporation could happen in the silver film. Nonetheless, it doesn’t look adequate to crystalize silver film as is usually anticipated from high resistivity. Because the temperature further increased to 150 C, the resistivity decreased substantially. 7 of 17 Despite the fact that the temperature was not over 160 C (ethylene glycol’s dehydration temperature), the film could evaporate ethylene glycol for any extended time, and there might be chemical 7 of 17 reaction, which appears capable of crystalizing it.
