Smart manufacturing to protect our environment
At Clariant New Business Electronic Materials we create sustainable solutions for the electronics manufacturing.
Smart manufacturing to protect our environment
- Electronic appliances, such as smart phones and tablet PCs, getting smaller whereas functionality increases
- Current manufacturing processes require extensive production facilities with high energy consumption, involve chemical metallization processes using large amounts of various toxic and hazardous chemicals and produce large amounts of waste water
- Therefore, industry is looking for solutions to reduce production costs and deploy lean, environmentally friendly manufacturing processes
- At Clariant New Business Electronic Materials we develop solutions for sustainable manufacturing of electronic devices

Nano Silver Conductive Inks – PRELECT® TPS
SMALLER, SMARTER, ECO-FRIENDLIER
- Clariant developed PRELECT® TPS Nano Silver Conductive Inks, which allow to print conductive patterns for electronic devices directly on any surface.
- The hazardous chemical metallization processes are replaced by printing a water-based ink containing metal particles to form the electronic pattern.
- By using nanosized silver particles low curing temperatures are sufficient to create an electric conductor almost as conductive as pure silver.
- PRELECT® TPS inks can be printed with standard industrial ink jet print heads.
