Abstract: In order to clarify the hydrophilic properties of conductive films, the hydrophilic constraints of transparent conductive films were designed, the strain of transparent conductive films was optimised, and the hydrophilic properties of nano silver transparent conductive films were analysed. The test results show that when the ion concentration is 6 × 10¹⁵ ions/cm, the hydrophilic contact angle of the conductive film will begin to decrease after the immersion time exceeds 40 min. When the nano silver transparent conductive film is immersed in the ionic liquid for 50 min, the hydrophilic contact angle of the conductive film measured by this method and the actual result are both 8°, and the detection result of this method is consistent with the actual result. When the ultraviolet light intensity is 6000 uw/cm², the hydrophilic angle between the method in this paper and the actual nano silver transparent conductive film is 22°.

Keywords: hydrophilicity; photoelectric performance; strain; photoconductivity; transparent conductive films; hydrophilic contact angle.
