  • Publication number: 20130260094
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are substrates which have been dry coated with a layered material. Generally, a layered material precursor composition is mixed with a milling medium so that the milling medium is coated with the layered material. The substrate is then contacted with the coated milling medium. The layered material on the milling medium transfers to the substrate to form a coating on the substrate. In particular, conductive films can be formed on a substrate without the need for additives such as a surfactant or a polymeric binder.
