In particular, the digitally prepared molds provide a method of printing micropatterns of fine variable features or images in a more efficient manner than the methods currently available. | 07-12-2012 |
20120190765 | ROBUST CURABLE SOLID INKS - Curable solid inks which are solid at room temperature and molten at an elevated temperature at which the molten ink is applied to a substrate. In particular, the curable solid inks of the present embodiments retain the advantages of handling, safety, and print quality usually associated with conventional curable solid phase change inks but have replaced the petroleum-based materials generally used in the conventional inks with renewable “green” materials to provide a robust and environmentally-friendly curable solid ink. | 07-26-2012 |
20130344232 | METHODS OF FORMING CONDUCTIVE FEATURES ON THREE-DIMENSIONAL OBJECTS - A method of forming a conductive feature on a three-dimensional object may include depositing a composition comprising nanoparticles onto a portion of the three-dimensional object, and annealing the composition to form the conductive feature. In another embodiment, a method of forming a conductive feature on a three-dimensional object may include printing a composition comprising nanoparticles to produce a contiguous line over a non-planar portion of the three-dimensional object, and heating the composition to form a conductive feature that has conductivity throughout. | 12-26-2013 |
20150051342 | CURABLE PHASE CHANGE INK COMPOSITIONS - A phase change ink composition is provided comprising a UV-curable component, a crystalline component, and an amorphous component, wherein the addition of a UV-curable component imparts improved robustness over the ink that contains only crystalline and amorphous materials. | 02-19-2015 |
20150080514 | PROTECTIVE OVERCOAT FOR PRINTED IMAGES - A method includes forming a film over a printed image on a substrate, the film includes a print overcoat composition having a binder that includes an aqueous vinylacetate-ethylene copolymer emulsion, (1) a particulate additive as a dispersion or emulsion, (2) a co-binder, or (3) both, and a surfactant, the film provides wear and scratch resistance to the printed image. | 03-19-2015 |
20150114246 | EMULSIFIED ELECTRORHEOLOGICAL INK FOR INDIRECT PRINTING - An emulsified aqueous ink comprising an electrorheological fluid including a liquid phase and a solid phase, and a co-solvent, which is suitable for use in an indirect printing method. | 04-30-2015 |
20150116417 | EMULSIFIED AQUEOUS INK COMPRISING REACTIVE ALKOXYSILANE FOR INDIRECT PRINTING - An emulsified aqueous ink comprising a reactive alkoxysilane, a humectant; and a colorant, which is suitable for use in an indirect printing method, and a method of printing using the emulsified aqueous ink. | 04-30-2015 |
