Wet Printing Technologies Challenges
Wet Printing Technologies Challenges
- Complex, costly, and eco-unfriendly ink formulation processes.
- Limited availability of functional inks.
- Transportation, shelf life, and storage difficulties of inks
- Contaminations and impurities due to the use of solvents and additives for ink formulations.
- Environmental pollution due to the necessity of removing and recycling organic solvent and surfactant after deposition.
- Post-processing steps for curing the prints and removing surfactants and ink additives.
- Limited or no multi-material printing of hybrid materials and composites.
- Clogging and cleaning hassles.
NanoPrintek Dry Printing Advantages
Wet Printing Technologies Challenges
Wet Printing Technologies Challenges
- No need for inks and liquids. Requires solids targets (pellets) of the desired materials.
- Easy transportation, shelf life, and storage.
- On-demand and in-situ formation of dry and pure nanoparticles.
- Real-time sintering and integration.
- No post-treatment processes.
- Environmentally friendly process due to the on-demand formation of nanoparticles as needed.
- Advanced and Multifunctional materials printing. Hybrid, multimaterial and composite printing.
- Suitable for printing electronics, sensors, micro-batteries/supercapacitors, catalysis, etc.
- Simultaneous subtractive and additive processes for trenching/printing and localized repair.
