Ishihara to Market Copper Ink Technology of Applied Nanotech

Applied Nanotech declared that Ishihara Chemical Company would be marketing its Copper Ink using technology from Applied Nanotech.

Ishihara Chemical Company intends to launch the marketing at the JPCA Show 2011 to be held at Tokyo from the 1^st to 3^rd of June. The JPCA show is a platform for exhibiting the leading developments in the field of electronic circuits. This would be the ideal venue for launching the copper ink technology.

At present Ishihara is involved in equipping its manufacturing facility for production and plans to focus on marketing a broad range of products such as solar cells, RFID tags, LED lighting, LED displays, medical sensors and intelligent packaging. The R&D award for the year 2010 was jointly won by Applied Nanotech and Ishihara for the development of inkjettable copper inks. The copper inks could be deposited through many printing technologies on a thin, flexible substrate. Copper ink technology, thus, opened avenues for more energy efficient and eco-friendly products.

Applied Nanotech had declared in 2009 that it had signed an exclusive agreement with Ishihara Chemical Company for the manufacture and commercialisation of nano-copper inks and pastes. The manufacturing facility of Ishihara would be helping in the production of low cost copper nano inks and would also aid Applied Nanotech in marketing the product.
