Solderable "silver" conductive paste for hybrid electronics compatible with SMT assembly?

Curable silver inks with millisecond curing for rapid R2R printing? In this short 5-min video by Philipp Hoelzl you will learn about both these trends. In particular you will see the following:


Solderable Silver Ink: Elantas has developed a silver ink which is resistant up to 200C and compatible with substrates like Kapton. This ink- offering <15 mOhm/s/mill- survives harsh conditions, meaning that it can - together with printable high-T insulators - enable temperature sensors for environments in which inks normally burn!


Interestingly, the high temperature nature means that it can also be soldered. Here, you will see prototypes by Kundisch GmbH & Co. KG showing how these silver conductive pastes can be soldered using a low-temperature Sn-Bi-Ag solder with a eutectic temperature of 138C. Here you will see a complex example involving soldered LEDs, NFC function, and touch screen elements with printed metallization on glass.


This is an important development because it shows that not only copper inks, but also silver conductive inks can also be soldered, thereby enabling SMT assembly of parts and thus enabling flexible hybrid electronics



R2R Silver Conductive Inks: R2R printing is all about speed. Often, the heat curing step (a few min in the oven at >120C) slows the entire process down, and requires long ovens with buffer zones. This is why UV curable inks are desired. However, many UV inks do not meet requirements, especially as the absence of forceful drying, unlike heat curing, may mean that particles do not pull together to form a highly conductive line. Here, Philipp Hoelzl introduces a UV curable ink able to reach <30mOhm/sq/mill conductivity with a low VoC content (<2%) with sub-second curing via UV exposure
