Printed Electronics and Conductive Inks for Screen Printing
Printed electronics demand the highest levels of quality and precision. Chromaline developed UDC-Ace (liquid emulsion) and Razor (capillary film), both produced under ISO 9001 certification, to meet the rigorous standards for:
• Circuitry – including solar cells, membrane switches, additive flexible circuits, and touch screens
• Graphics – such as overlays for membrane switches and touch screens, and PCB legend printing
• Functional layers – including solder masks, EMI/RFI shielding, dielectric layers, and adhesives

With years of product research and development, Chromaline has assembled a comprehensive product range, with solutions that will fit your screen printing needs.
Solvent Inks
Solvent-based inks produce vibrant, glossy colors and can withstand frequent handling, making them popular in industries that prioritize longevity and quality in print. These inks offer excellent adhesion, durability, and resistance to water, chemicals, and UV light, making them ideal for products exposed to harsh environments, such as automotive parts, outdoor signage, and packaging

Conductive Inks
These inks contain fine particles of silver or other conductive materials. The ink’s conductivity allows electricity to flow through it, creating the precise patterns needed for electronic circuitry.

UV Inks
UV inks provide excellent resistance to fading, scratching, and chemicals, making them suitable for packaging, electronics, drinkware, and automotive parts. Additionally, their rapid curing process reduces drying time, allowing for efficient production with minimal environmental impact due to low VOC emissions.
