As consumers demand smaller and less expensive products, manufacturers must incorporate high-volume, low-cost solutions. Printing is one of the most cost-effective production methods for certain applications and printed electronics is helping to address this high throughput, reduced cost scenario. For current applications in printed electronics, Henkel has developed ink solutions for the three most commonly used technologies: flatbed (screen/stencil), flexographic and rotogravure printing.

Taking a total solutions approach, Henkel formulates ink sets that work together to provide customers completed systems with the functionality and environmental robustness for today’s demanding applications.

One of the largest and most diverse areas for conductive ink use is flex circuitry. The ability to easily construct circuits or change form factor through printing makes flex circuitry an ideal application for conductive inks. Henkel offers a wide selection of inks formulated for specific applications, cure requirements and substrates. Some of the latest ink technologies incorporate new functionality such as thermal forming capabilities and ink sets designed to measure forces applied to them.

Flexible Circuits | 5 HIGH SPEED (ROTO/FLEXO) PRINTING

Flexo and Gravure printing technologies have seen many advances in ink development, process changes and press designs. Over the last ten years, these techniques have advanced high speed printing capabilities for printed electronics and circuitry. Developments range from changes in flexo plate designs and materials to improved anilox designs, drying capabilities and the press platforms themselves.

With continuous roll to roll processing, newer flexo machines are capable of running at speeds that cannot be matched with current flatbed printing. Henkel has developed a line of inks that can be effectively processed, deposited and cured at the thicknesses needed for today’s functional inks.

RFID technology is found in a variety of devices including SmartCards, passports, credit cards, various transportation payment systems and more. In addition to flexibility, and compatibility requirements, electronic inks used for RFID products have to be capable of transmitting and receiving specific radio frequencies. All of the elements within the ink system have to be formulated to interact effectively with RF fields and this requires materials that offer good permeability, surface roughness and low impedance. Henkel has a long and successful history developing inks for RFID devices and this knowledge base is enabling the next generation of these popular ID products.

Dielectric | 21 EMI SHIELDING COATINGS

Minimizing electromagnetic interference (EMI) is an important design criteria that needs to be addressed during the development of any new electronic device, especially if the device is going to be housed in a plastic enclosure. Conductive coatings have been used successfully as a method of EMI shielding for over 25 years and are common throughout the electronic industry. Henkel offers a wide range of shielding coatings: nickel coatings offer unique performance benefits, while silver plated copper and silver formulations are for applications where the highest levels of shielding are required.
