Features
Mi-GraphInk comprises the following features:
- High Conductivity
Graphene-based conductive liquid with conductivity comparable to metal-based conductive liquid. - Inkjet-Printable
Proven jettability on inkjet printing process (based on Dimatix DMP series of cartridge) with viscosity of below 4cP. - Nano-Sized
Nano-sized conductive elements below 30nm for ease of jetting and reduction in print head clogging. - Customisable
Can be modified, tuned and tailored to the required needs and specifications.
Technology Benefits
The main impacts of Mi-GraphInk are:
- Low Cost
Reduction in 80% of metal-based elements without compromising the conductivity of the developed ink products. High jettability of the ink ensures that less volume is required to develop conductive film with similar sheet resistance. Quality of the hybridised-graphene used is controlled at a consistent and uniform manner across the solvent. - Environmental Sustainability
Graphene is a carbon-based nanomaterial which ensures environmental sustainability for bulk usage particularly in the electrical and electronics industries. - Enabling Technology
Functionalisation of base graphene conductive ink to form new types of conductive ink products can be achieved through process add-ons and the use of proprietary chemical synthesis processes leading to the development of
nanosensing materials, conductive interconnects, coatings, flexible electronic platforms and others
