Abstract

The invention discloses a method for high-accuracy ink printed flexible circuit. The method comprises process parameter optimization and substrate surface modification and processing and comprises thefollowing steps of coating a layer of high-hydrophobicity material polydimethylsiloxane PDMS on a flexible substrate such as polyethylene terephthalate PET, polyethylene naphthalate PEN, polyimide PI, polyvinyl alcohol PVA, polyurethane acrylate PUA and a hydrogenated styrene-butadiene segmented copolymer SEBS, performing oxygen plasma or ultraviolet ozone (UVO) processing, rising a temperature of the processed substrate to 30-65 DEG C, and controlling an ink printing circuit within a point distance range of 20-65 micrometers. The patterned circuit fabricated by the method has the characteristics of high circuit accuracy, small line width and high resolution, and high conductivity and high flexibility are shown.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an inkjet printing method for flexible circuits, belonging to the technical fields of printed electronics and flexible electronics. Background technique [0002] As a basic component of electronic components, electronic circuits are widely used in optoelectronic technology, communications, artificial intelligence, Internet of Things, national defense and other fields. At present, the preparation of electronic circuits mainly involves chemical etching and other processes, which are complicated, waste raw materials, high cost, and pollute the environment. In addition, traditional circuit boards mostly use hard substrates with poor flexibility, which is not suitable for the development needs of low-cost, large-area flexible electronic components in the future. As an emerging electronic manufacturing technology, inkjet printing has unique advantages over traditional chemical etching processes. Inkjet printing is an additive manuf...
