An oleate coated silver powder was synthesized as follows: Silver oxalate (doped with 1% copper for heat stabilization) (20 g) is slurried into oleic acid (250 mL) by stirring with a magnetic stir bar. The solution is then heated on a hot plate with stirring to 185° C. for 90 minutes. The solution is then allowed to cool to room temperature and the dark gray precipitate settles to the bottom. The solvent is then carefully removed by pipette from the top of the precipitate. Then to remove the remaining solvent the precipitate is washed with 3×50 mL tetrahydrofuran (THF) by stirring the precipitate with the THF then allowing it to settle and then removing the THF by pipette from the top of the precipitate. The precipitate is then washed 3×50 ml with Isopar H in the same manner. Finally, the wet precipitate is dispersed in Isopar H (80 g) and treated ultrasonically for 30 minutes. This method gives a dispersion of silver particles with approximately 10% Ag (wt/wt).
