FTO conductive glass and ITO conductive glass seem to be a pair of twins, the name is only one character difference, but also are a kind of conductive glass. So, you may ask: what is the difference and connection between FTO glass and ITO glass, can they replace each other?
To answer this question, we may have to answer from the following 7 aspects:

1, definition-wise, the two have different coating layer compositions.
ITO conductive glass refers to the sodium-calcium-based or silicon-boron based substrate glass on the basis of the use of magnetron sputtering method coated with a layer of indium tin oxide film processed glass.
FTO conductive glass refers to fluorine-doped tin dioxide conductive glass.
2, conductivity, ITO glass conductivity is better than FTO glass, FTO glass if not specially treated, its layer surface barrier is high, not easy to transmit electrons;

3, the cost of cost, FTO glass cost is lower than ITO glass;
4, etching difficulty, FTO glass etching process, easier than ITO glass;
5, high temperature resistance, FTO glass is better than ITO high temperature resistance, the former can be up to 700 degrees, while the ITO glass at about 300-400 degrees.
6, FTO glass sintering after the square resistance change is relatively small, than with ITO glass to do the printing electrode when the sintering effect is good;
7, transmittance, FTO glass square resistance value is large, low transmittance rate, ITO glass transmittance rate is higher.
Of course, although there are many differences between the two, but also have to say that in some areas, FTO glass can be used as a substitute for ITO glass, such as liquid crystal display, photocatalysis, thin film solar cell substrates and other fields. With special treatment of FTO glass, can be realized with ITO glass is very close to the effect, but the cost will be significantly reduced.
Well, as above is the author of the FTO conductive glass and ITO glass what is the difference and contact.
