The D-110, D-112 and D-114 silver conductor pastes are targeted at display bus bar electrodes.

Five Star Technologies has released the ElectroSperse line of silver conductor pastes, initially targeting applications in displays and solar cells The pastes deliver the same uniform particle size and consistent rheology seen in Five Star dispersions, enabling customers to print fine features consistently and economically

Lines as narrow as 3mm can be printed consistently with no loss of conductivity or line integrity.

The D-110, D-112 and D-114 versions are targeted at display bus bar electrodes.

All three products are screen-printable pastes designed to deliver excellent adhesion when fired onto ITO (indium tin oxide) or F-doped TO (fluorine-doped tin oxide)-coated glass.

The series is entirely lead-free, responding to the European market requirements for RoHS (restriction of hazardous substances) and Reach (registration, evaluation, authorisation and restriction of chemicals) compliance.

The three grades differ in metal content, allowing the user to select a conductivity and price range suitable to the application.

ElectroSperse D-114 achieves a sheet resistivity of 1.2 - 1.8mohm/m2, while D-112 and D-114 are targeted at 2 - 3 and 4 - 5mohm/m2, respectively.

Applications include touch screen sensor electrodes, heater circuits and antennae.

Five Star also offers a line of specialty dispersions that deliver enhanced stability and unparalleled performance for precious metal processing, chip packaging, ceramic components and thick-film pastes.
