VFP’s SES – High-Performance Stretchable Conductive Ink for Advanced Applications

VFP’s SES – High-Performance Stretchable Conductive Ink for Advanced Applications

The SES (Silver Electron Stretchable) Conductive Ink is an innovative PFAS free, non-CMR, solvent-based formulation designed to meet the demands of advanced printed electronics. Combining high conductivity, flexibility, and durability, it offers a reliable solution for next-generation electronic applications.

One of the key advantages of SES ink is its excellent electrical conductivity, making it ideal for circuits requiring efficient signal transmission. Additionally, its high flexibility allows it to stretch without losing its conductive properties, making it a perfect choice for applications involving dynamic movements and deformation.

After curing, SES ink exhibits outstanding heat resistance, enabling it to withstand elevated temperatures while maintaining its performance and adhesion on various substrates. The ink also provides excellent adhesion to a wide range of materials, ensuring long-term durability and reliable performance even in demanding environments.

SES in Thermoforming and In-Mold Injection Applications

The SES Conductive Ink has demonstrated remarkable potential in thermoforming and in-mold injection (IMD/IML) applications. These advanced manufacturing techniques allow electronics to be seamlessly integrated into 3D-formed plastic parts, expanding the possibilities for product design and innovation.

  • Thermoforming Compatibility: SES ink maintainsconductivity and adhesion even when subjected to the stretching and reshaping processes required in thermoforming. This makes it ideal for wearable electronics, flexible sensors, and smart surfaces that require conformability to curved surfaces.
  • In-Mold Injection (IMD/IML) Integration: The ink can be printed onto films that are laterinserted into molds before plastic injection, embedding the conductive traces into final molded parts. This ensures enhanced durability and protection against environmental factors such as humidity, friction, and mechanical stress.

Pioneering Innovation with Plastronics & 3D Electronics Integration

Beyond its applications in thermoforming and in-mold electronics, SES ink is at the forefront of plastronics and 3D electronics integration. This cutting-edge technology combines printed electronics with plasturgy, enabling the creation of seamlessly embedded circuits within complex plastic structures.

  • Advanced Integration Process: SES ink facilitates the incorporation of conductive pathways into3D plastic components, making it possible to replace traditional rigid circuit boards with lightweight, flexible, and durable alternatives.
  • Enhanced Design Freedom: Thanks toits stretchability and adaptability, SES ink allows manufacturers to develop new generations of smart surfaces, automotive interiors, medical devices, and connected packaging.
  • Seamless 3D Electronics Embedding: This innovation supports the transition from2D circuit printing to fully integrated 3D electronic structures, enabling the production of high-performance electronic components without bulky assemblies.

Shaping the Future of Printed Electronics

The SES Conductive Ink represents a major leap forward in the field of printed and stretchable electronics. Its high conductivity, flexibility, and compatibility with advanced manufacturing processes make it a game-changer for industries looking to integrate functional electronics into lightweight, durable, and innovative designs.

With its unique combination of performance and adaptability, SES ink is poised to redefine the future of smart electronics, paving the way for new applications in automotive, medical, aerospace, and consumer electronics.
