Photodefinable Conductive Material RAYBRID™ Paste for Metal MeshRAYBRID™

RAYBRID™ paste for metal mesh (SFAG Series) is a conductive paste with photodefinable characteristics. Toray's proprietary polymer design technology allows the formation of high-definition wiring, provides an alternative to ITO, and is used mainly for touch panel metal mesh applications, etc.

Features

  1. High-definition wiring formation is possible with photolitho processing after coating with a slit coater.
  2. High-definition formation is possible with Toray's proprietary polymer design technology.
  3. As it has lower resistance than ITO, it is suitable for large touch panels in automobiles, etc.
  4. Because it is a material with good flexibility, is it suitable for flexible sensors.

Applications/Usage

After applying RAYBRID™ evenly to the glass or polyimide board with a slit coater, etc., form the desired pattern with photolitho. Then cure the pattern by applying a baking step of 230°C before use.
