Product Data Sheet

Product Catalog Number: Sicrys™  P75DB-1

General Information

Sicrys™ P75DB-1, a conductive high viscous ink based on single-crystal silver nanoparticles in an organic solvent,
has been designed for LIFT (Laser Induced Forward Transfer) digital printing and laser sintering.
The ink offers:
  • Uniform and reproducible donor layer with low drying speed 
  • Stable accurate jetting in different types of laser systems, wide working window of jetting parameters
  • High speed printing (20-50kHz), allowing high throughput
  • Narrow patterning on plastic and glass substrates (line width ~50 μm, height ~0.5 μm, spacing ~50 μm)
  • Laser sintering of LIFT printed pattern, providing good electrical properties
