Abstract
The present disclosure provides plated particles for use in silver/silver chloride ink for making medical devices. The plated particles include a plurality of silver coated inert particles. The silver coating of each silver coated inert particle is about 10 to 50% by weight of the silver coated inert particle. The silver/silver chloride ink includes a plurality of silver coated inert particles and a plurality of silver chloride particles. A medical device includes a backing layer, a silver/silver chloride ink layer and a conductive adhesive layer.
