“…Ag NWs have been synthetized by the reduction of AgNO 3 in ethylene glycol solutions containing poly(vinyl pyrrolidone) (PVP) [12][13][14]. Literature reports several other methods: synthesis in aqueous solutions in the presence or absence of seeds and surfactants [15][16][17][18], hydrothermal synthesis using glucose as reducing agent [19], microwave assisted synthesis [20], and using template-directed synthesis in AAO [3]. But these elaboration techniques do not allow obtaining large quantities.…”

International audienceHigh conductive composites were elaborated by incorporating high aspect ratio (250) silver nanowires in polyimide matrix via solvent mixing way. Silver nanowires were synthesized in solution by polyol synthesis. The composite conductivity reaches the value of 102 S·m−1 above a very lowpercolation threshold (0.48 vol.% of silver nanowires). SEM-FEG images showed that metallic nanowires are well dispersed in PI matrix. They do not influence the physical structure of the polymer. Below the percolation threshold, γ, β and α relaxation modes were detected. γ relaxation mode was fitted to determinate the activation energy value (32.7 kJ·mol−1) and the relaxation time (1.5 × 10−16 s). The mobility associated with the γ relaxation is considered to be localized and non-cooperative. According to the Mott theory, studies on composites below the percolation threshold showed that the conduction mechanism is ruled by tunneling at low temperatures. The transport mechanism led by hopping is activated at −50 °C
