[0025] Flexible circuit board (FPC) is widely used in consumer electronics, 5G communication and automotive electronics due to its lightness, thinness and bendability. As the core material of FPC conductive circuit, silver paste needs to meet the requirements of low temperature sintering, i.e. sintering temperature ≤200 DEG C, to avoid thermal damage to flexible substrates, while having high conductivity (low square resistance), strong adhesion (firmly combined with PI / CPI film and other substrates) and good printing suitability (adapted to silk screen printing, inkjet and other processes).

[0026] However, the existing low temperature sintering silver paste mostly uses micron silver powder or single particle size nano silver powder, which has the following defects:
