PARU FE's two step 'printing & curing' process significantly reduced process steps compared with copper etching system.

PARU inks are printed with conventional printing technology such as roll to roll gravure, offset, screen and inkjet.

We are making the highly conductive silver and cooper inks using nanoparticles for R2R gravure printing and inkjet printing. We are now using the Single walled carbon nanotube for semi-conductive inks which can be applied for printing.

Our technologies can be used for printed RF label & logo, printed photovoltaic, printed display, printed sensor, FPCB, printed fuel cell and Bio-technology.

Metal Nanoparticles for Printed Electronics

 

PChem nanoparticle inks deliver superior conductivity and processing capability. These inks are being used in the development of next generation flexible and cost effective devices for the expanding Printed Electronics market. In particular, PChem has the capability to flexographically print conductive lines as narrow as 20 microns wide. Using this capability, PChem is developing products that include a lower cost, higher conductivity alternative to ITO. The optical clarity is comparable to or better than ITO over a wide range of sheet resistances up to 100 ohms/sq. PChem is also offering for the first time highly conductive nanoparticle screen inks that allow reduced metal usage and fine line printing (75 micron line/space).

PolyIC produces printed electronics in a high-speed printing process. Printed electronics means that in a printing process electrical conducting and semi conducting plastics, so called polymers, are applied in several layers on a polyester film. The printing process is conducted in an exactly defined design so that electronic devices can be created. These devices are integrated, for example, into a RFID (radio frequency identification) tag. PolyIC's product line for RFID is called PolyID. Printed electronics makes low-cost RFID tags possible that can be used for mass applications. Furthermore, this new technology is also used in displays and complex systems, called smart objects. PolyIC sells smart objects under the name of PolyLogo.
