Highly conductive ink composition and method for fabricating a metal conductive pattern

A viscosity controllable highly conductive ink composition. The highly conductive ink composition comprises an organic solvent, nanoscale metal particles or metallo-organic decomposition compounds, and a thermally decomposable organic polymer. Specifically, since the thermally decomposable polymer can increase the viscosity of the highly conductive ink composition and be removed by subsequent thermal treatment, so as to decrease the impact on conductivity by organic polymer. Therefore, a viscosity-controllable conductive ink composition is obtained.
