“Sun Chemical offers a comprehensive solutions portfolio for biosensors and medical devices,” said Roy Bjorlin, Commercial and Strategic Initiatives Director, Sun Chemical. “Unlike traditional material suppliers, we are committed to providing our customers with tailor-made materials solutions for a wide variety of applications.” Conductive Inks and Pastes from Recently Acquired Gwent Electronic Materials With the recent acquisition of Gwent Electronic Materials, Sun Chemical will showcase conductive inks and pastes for biosensors, EL materials, cermet pastes for oxygen sensors, piezo, hybrid microcircuits, and novel materials for printed circuits. In addition, Sun Chemical now offers research and development services for sensors and electrochemical designs. Sun Chemical to Display Solutions for Switches, Sensors, and More Sun Chemical will display its conductive inks, resists, dielectrics, and insulators for membrane touch switches (MTS), sensors, displays, touch panels, printed antenna, and solid state lighting. To support a broad variety of applications, SunTronic® ECLIPSE technologies can be tailor-made for specific printing processes, including screen, inkjet, roll-to-roll coating, and other print technologies. SunTronic® NANOSILVER Inks for Aerosol Jet and Inkjet Systems Expanding on its EMD5800 series of nanosilver inks for inkjet systems, Sun Chemical’s recently introduced EMD5805 nanosilver inks can be used with industry-leading digital and direct write systems. EMD5800 nanosilver inks deliver the industry’s best performing low-temperature sintering properties and its unique chemistry offers long open life as well as superior jetting performance. Optimized for industry leading aerosol jet and inkjet systems, it is now possible to work with one nanosilver from prototype to production with the EMD5800 series of inks. Sun Chemical a Unique Provider of Both Traditional and Electronic Inks for In-Mold Electronics Booth visitors will learn that Sun Chemical is the world’s only provider of both functional and graphic inks for in-mold electronics (IME). Offering an “IME Full Stack” where both traditional inks and electronic inks can be sold together from a single source, Sun Chemical is uniquely positioned to provide both form and function for the burgeoning IME process. DAITAC Pressure Sensitive Adhesive Tapes deliver Unmatched Adhesion Sun Chemical’s parent company, DIC Corporation, will showcase DAITAC PSA (pressure sensitive adhesive) tapes for a range of applications. Optimized for sensors, flexible printed circuits, and medical device assembly, DAITAC PSA tapes deliver outstanding adhesion, durability and holding strength to various materials. Specialized chemistries of DAITAC tapes deliver products with low VOCs, are halogen- and acid-free, and exhibit excellent adhesion and durability. Degassing Fluids for Diagnostics, Medical Devices and 3D Printing with SEPAREL DIC will also highlight SEPAREL hollow fiber membrane modules for degassing a wide range of fluids to prevent defects in analytical equipment, a range of medical devices, and 3D printed materials. By utilizing a proprietary hollow fiber membrane that limits pinhole leaks, SEPAREL can remove dissolved gases to any part-per-billion (ppb) level.
