Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method for selectively etching and patterning with high resolution of flexible polymer matrices, which may comprise Ag nano tubes.
Abstract:
The presently described embodiments use a printing process, e.g. a wax printing technique, to pattern a mask layer (such as a soldermask layer) of, for example, a printed circuit. Substantially all other conventional processes in developing soldermask and exposure processes can be maintained. According to the presently described embodiments, each printed circuit will have a unique pattern that matches uniform and non-uniform runout. In one form, the pattern is comprised of wax single drops having a specified gap to make the process transparent to the current industry practice. Furthermore, the single drops can be used for both large and small areas without any development time differences. In at least one form, the wax pattern and the soldermask in the gap are removed during development.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a process for forming a structure comprising providing a support, coating one side of said support with a colored mask, coating a layer photopatternable by visible light, and exposing the layer through the colored mask with visible light to photopattern the layer.
Abstract:
Negatives and laminates containing negatives for exposing liquid photopolymers in UV flexographic plate making are created by printing opaque images directly onto the protective or release cover films used in plate making processes. Combining negatives and cover films in this way eliminates two layers and two interfaces in the exposure process, reducing cost and improving quality.

Abstract:
Lithographic printing plates are imaged using an inkjet printer to imagewise apply a chemical or masking agent onto the plate surface. In some embodiments, the chemical causes an affinity change, thereby facilitating lithographic printing.
Abstract:
A resist for printing that is coated on a printing roll and is then sequentially transcribed on a printing plate and a substrate including: a material wherein a cohesive energy between the resist and the printing plate is larger than a cohesive energy between the resist and a blanket formed on the surface of printing roll, and wherein a cohesive energy between the resist and the substrate is larger than the cohesive energy between the resist and the blanket formed on the surface of printing roll.
Abstract:
The present invention is directed to an ink receptive film and methods of using the ink receptive film. The ink receptive film is generally suitable for etching patterns into substrates, and typically includes a photosensitive laminate structure containing at least an ink receptive, radiation transmissive layer; and at least one photosensitive resist layer.
Abstract:
A printed circuit board and a method of manufacturing the printed circuit board are disclosed. The method of manufacturing the printed circuit board in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention can include: forming an opaque conductive pattern on one side of a transparent insulation layer; forming a photosensitive insulation layer on the transparent insulation layer such that the conductive pattern is covered; hardening the photosensitive insulation layer excluding an area covering the conductive pattern by irradiating light on the other side of the transparent insulation layer; and forming an opening on the photosensitive insulation layer by removing the area of the photosensitive insulation layer covering the conductive pattern such that the conductive pattern is exposed.
