Energy curable technologies such as UV and EB have successfully gained prominence in a wide variety of graphic arts and coatings markets. The ability to instantly cure the ink or coating with little to no volatile organic compounds (VOCs) as well as impart excellent resistance properties, has made UV and EB a choice for numerous applications.
The field of printed electronics is another area of interest for UV and EB formulators, but that interest has remained somewhat limited. In an effort to bring attention to the potential usage of UV and EB in printed electronics, RadTech International North America recently held uv.eb WEST 2011, its two-day conference and exhibition, in Santa Clara, CA/USA. The conference was successful, as more than 240 attendees heard talks ranging from printed electronics to the capabilities of energy curing and determining the applied cost of coatings.
