Preparation of new conductive ink

Conductive ink refers to ink that is printed on non-conductive substrates to enable it to conduct current and eliminate the accumulation of static charge. It is generally printed on non-conductive substrates such as plastic, glass, ceramics, or cardboard. There are many printing methods, such as screen printing, letterpress printing, flexographic printing, gravure printing, and lithographic printing. Different printing methods can be selected according to the requirements of the film thickness, and the resistance, solder resistance and abrasion resistance are also different according to the film thickness. Conductive inks can be divided into structural and filled types according to their different structures. The conductive inks currently used in the electronics industry are mainly composite conductive inks. The conductive fillers used are generally inorganic fillers such as gold, silver, copper, nickel Carbon black, graphite, carbon fiber, etc., and the binder resin is usually selected from phenolic resin, epoxy resin, polyurethane and so on. Among them, epoxy resin is widely used in conductive polymers because of its excellent performance and cheap raw materials. However, it also has disadvantages such as high viscosity, brittleness, low elasticity, and poor impact resistance. Therefore, it is necessary to modify and toughen it. Interpenetrating polymer network (IPN) is a new field of polymer modification. The compounding and blending of polyurethane and epoxy resin to form an IPN system has been the subject of much research in recent years. The IPN structure can combine the high elasticity of polyurethane with the good heat resistance and adhesiveness of epoxy resin through forced mutual capacity and synergistic effect to achieve a good toughening effect. I use isocyanate-terminated polyurethane as a toughening agent. Through the reaction of terminal isocyanate groups with the secondary hydroxyl groups on the epoxy resin, a flexible ether bond is introduced on the epoxy resin, thereby improving the toughness of the epoxy resin, and using the modified ring Oxygen resin is added to conductive filler to make conductive ink.

In terms of its application, it can be applied to flexible circuits and RFID. The flexible circuit is a key component to realize the multi-function, integration, miniaturization and low cost of electronic information products. With the development of electronic products and equipment in the direction of light, thin, small, low cost, multi-function, high reliability, etc., the amount of flexible circuits is increasing. The use of conductive ink or conductive ink by printing or printing The formation of conductive lines on an insulating substrate has attracted wide attention. The test shows that the modified epoxy resin-based conductive ink has good adhesion, and the printed conductive circuit has a bending resistance of 10,000 times, which meets the requirements of flexible printed circuits. RFID is an electronic tag that is expected to replace barcodes, and is composed of an antenna and a microchip. However, in the promotion process, the development is hindered due to the lack of economical technology. The low-cost tag antenna printed with new conductive ink is low Cost packaging technology will promote the mass production of RFID tags, and will become one of the key factors that determine the development speed of the industry for a period of time in the future. I used modified epoxy resin as the connecting material, conductive carbon black and conductive graphite as the conductive filler, plus an appropriate amount of curing agent, solvent and dispersant to prepare the modified epoxy resin-based conductive ink, and performed its performance Research and apply it to RFID, the advantages of antennas will become more and more prominent.
