Novacentrix, a US printed electronics firm recently announced that it had bought the nanosilver printing ink technology developed by PChem. The deal includes the intellectual property and other key assets developed by PChem at its site in Pennsylvania.
Novacentrix
will continue to market PChem's nanosilver ink range under their
original names. This includes, the rapid curing PFI-722 and PXI-4180
flexo inks; PSI-221 and PSI-219 screen printing inks; and the PSPI-700
spray ink.Novacentrix reports that by moving
production
to its facility in Texas, economies of scale in production will mean it
will be able to reduce the price of the nanosilver ink range to
customers.PChem's ink technology has already been used to produce medical sensors at high volume and interactive lottery tickets.
Charles Munson, CEO and president of Novacentrix, says: 'The PChem nanosilver flexo and screen inks have been well known for offering the best conductivity at the lowest cost to address growing and emerging opportunities in the printed electronics space.
'Combined with our existing and soon-to-be-released Metalon-brand ink products, as well as the state-of-the-art PulseForge photonic curing tools, we are better positioned than ever before to serve our customers as a leader in the printed electronics community.'
