Electrically Conductive Ink

Conductive ink is ink that conducts electricity and can be printed on a variety of materials. The ink contains materials such as powdered silver or copper which allows it to conduct electricity. Printed conductive ink is less costly than subtractive methods as it uses less material and creates less waste. Conductive ink is used in a variety of applications, such as Radio-frequency Identification (RFID) tags, windshield defrosters, computer keyboards, and printed circuit boards. Printed circuit boards can now be 3D printed.
