MSE PRO 4N (99.99%) Silver (Ag) Wire (1.0mm Dia.) Evaporation Materials
To better serve you, we would like to discuss your specific requirement, Please Contact Us for a quote.
Silver (Ag) is a soft, white, lustrous transition metal. It exhibits the highest electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity, and reflectivity of any metal. It is used in solar panels, water filtration, jewelry, ornaments, high-value tableware and utensils, in electrical contacts and conductors, in specialized mirrors, window coatings, in catalysis of chemical reactions, as a colorant in stained glass, and in specialized confectionery. Aside from optical field, it is also used as a coating material for cathodes to improve their electrochemical properties and for biomaterials to prevent infection.
