However, silver metals are too expensive to be used in large quantities. Furthermore, silver electrical circuits often suffer the problem of electro-migration. Therefore, Cu NPs are considered an alternative for conductive nanoinks because of their high conductivity, low cost, and reduced electro-migration effect. The major issue with Cu-based inks is easy oxidation in ambient air; the presence of copper oxide raises the sintering temperature and dramatically increases the electrical resistivity. To overcome these limitations, various types of copper-based inks have been developed to allow low-temperature (&lt;150 \u00b0C) sintering for the preparation of conductive Cu films on flexible substrates: (i) reduction-assisted particle-based inks, (ii) nanoparticle-based inks with specific ligands, (iii) precursor-type inks (e.g., inks based on metal\u2212organic decomposition, MOD), and (iv) combination inks. Our group focuses on low-temperature sintering of Cu-based inks to produce conductive Cu films on flexible polymer\/paper substrates, ensuring the durability of sintered Cu films to safeguard their environmental stability and mechanical \ufb02exibility. These performances have become the most important task from a practical standpoint.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-639\" src=\"http:\/\/wps.itc.kansai-u.ac.jp\/colloid\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/48\/2017\/03\/news20170510_ph01-300x223.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"223\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wps.itc.kansai-u.ac.jp\/colloid\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/48\/2017\/03\/news20170510_ph01-300x223.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wps.itc.kansai-u.ac.jp\/colloid\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/48\/2017\/03\/news20170510_ph01-768x570.jpg 768w, https:\/\/wps.itc.kansai-u.ac.jp\/colloid\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/48\/2017\/03\/news20170510_ph01-360x267.jpg 360w, https:\/\/wps.itc.kansai-u.ac.jp\/colloid\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/48\/2017\/03\/news20170510_ph01.jpg 927w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>\u3000<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-594\" src=\"http:\/\/wps.itc.kansai-u.ac.jp\/colloid\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/48\/2017\/07\/reserch2b01.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wps.itc.kansai-u.ac.jp\/colloid\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/48\/2017\/07\/reserch2b01.jpg 500w, https:\/\/wps.itc.kansai-u.ac.jp\/colloid\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/48\/2017\/07\/reserch2b01-300x120.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wps.itc.kansai-u.ac.jp\/colloid\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/48\/2017\/07\/reserch2b01-360x144.jpg 360w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-47\" src=\"http:\/\/wps.itc.kansai-u.ac.jp\/colloid\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/48\/2017\/06\/news20170523-1024x465.jpg\" alt=\"\u9285\u30da\u30fc\u30b9\u30c8\/\u5927\u6c17\u4e0b\u30fb\u4f4e\u6e29\u713c\u6210\" width=\"440\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wps.itc.kansai-u.ac.jp\/colloid\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/48\/2017\/06\/news20170523-1024x465.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/wps.itc.kansai-u.ac.jp\/colloid\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/48\/2017\/06\/news20170523-300x136.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wps.itc.kansai-u.ac.jp\/colloid\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/48\/2017\/06\/news20170523-768x349.jpg 768w, https:\/\/wps.itc.kansai-u.ac.jp\/colloid\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/48\/2017\/06\/news20170523-360x164.jpg 360w, https:\/\/wps.itc.kansai-u.ac.jp\/colloid\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/48\/2017\/06\/news20170523.jpg 1180w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 440px) 100vw, 440px\" \/>\u3000<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-668\" src=\"http:\/\/wps.itc.kansai-u.ac.jp\/colloid\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/48\/2017\/07\/english02_zu02-300x240.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"250\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wps.itc.kansai-u.ac.jp\/colloid\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/48\/2017\/07\/english02_zu02-300x240.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wps.itc.kansai-u.ac.jp\/colloid\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/48\/2017\/07\/english02_zu02-338x270.jpg 338w, https:\/\/wps.itc.kansai-u.ac.jp\/colloid\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/48\/2017\/07\/english02_zu02.jpg 631w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 250px) 100vw, 250px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&lt;Copper based conductive inks&gt;<br \/>\n\u30fbKawasaki et al. <em>Chem.
