Abstract
A process including selecting a printing system; selecting an ink composition having ink properties that match the printing system; depositing the ink composition onto a substrate to form an image, to form deposited features, or a combination thereof; optionally, heating the deposited features to form conductive features on the substrate; and performing a post-printing treatment after depositing the ink composition.
Claims20
A process comprising:
- selecting a printing system;
- selecting an ink composition having ink properties that match the printing system;
- wherein the ink composition comprises metal nanoparticles;
- wherein selecting an ink composition having ink properties that match the printing system comprises selecting an ink composition having a boiling point that matches the printing system and having a drying time that matches the printing system;
- depositing the ink composition onto a substrate to form an image, to form deposited features, or a combination thereof;
- optionally, heating the deposited features to form conductive features on the substrate;
- and
- performing a post-printing treatment after depositing the ink composition.
