Company Profile

Spraylat Introduces Improved Ink Technology for RFID Applications

Spraylat has developed a new line of improved performance polymer thick film inks.

Spraylat is now introducing a superior performance conductive ink for RFID antennas. This new product, XCMSR-013, is a rotary screen printable silver ink based on thermoplastic polyester chemistry. XCMSR-013 is specifically formulated for high-speed printing and fast cure. It has exceptionally low resistance and can be used for printing circuits at lower film builds. XCMSR-013 is ideal for printing RFID antennas, smart labels, and printed keyboards.

XCMSR-013 Features

Superior print accuracy at very high print speeds
Superior conductivity
Achievable line and space capability of >250 microns
Improved trace edge definition
Very good adhesion to treated and untreated polyester
Excellent screen residence time
Faster drying times; Increased throughput
Very good flexibility and abrasion resistance
Long shelf life

Spraylat's family of polymer thick film inks includes a full range conductors, resistors and UV dielectric inks. In addition to RFID antennas, applications for Spraylat ink products include internal antennas for portable products, membrane switches, keypads, electroluminescent displays, medical applications, flex circuits and rigid circuits.
