Screen Printing Carbon Ink Silver Color For Circuit Board
Substrate:
Screen Printing Conductive Carbon Ink wide range for various electronic membrane switch treated and untreated polyester substrate, especially processed polyester ink attached to the first power of a good, such as UV inks and ink characters insulation. It can also be used on other substrates, such as polyimide, PVC,PET,PC, ABS, rigid PCB substrate, circuit board or the like;
Printing equipment:
Screen Printing Conductive Carbon Ink conductive to determine the weight of the film, may be used 250 meesh-300mesh artificial net, but the resistance will vary with the purpose of the network changes, and the corresponding scraping with a polyester mesh is obtained more good results.
Conductive Carbon Ink in most cases they can be directly used, if you want to reduce the viscosity, can be added as little thinner, but no more than 5%, otherwise it will reduce the dry weight, improve resistance.
Drying: 130 ℃ 5-15 minutes
Saving:25℃
Tip:Please mixing about 10 minutes before you use this ink.

| Shelf‑life | 6 months for unopened original‑pack under standard storageAlibaba |
| Opened‑can usage suggestion | Consume fully within 2‑3 months after opening; long‑term standing causes heavy conductive‑powder sediment, must fully re‑stir before use. |
Warning: If ink shows irreversible thickening, agglomeration or obvious filler stratification before expiry date due to improper storage, discontinue usage.

| Dry‑film Thickness | Measured Average Sheet‑resistance (after 130℃ 10 min cure) | Remarks |
|---|---|---|
| 20 μm | 90‑110 Ω/sq | Thinner film → higher resistance |
| 25 μm (target process) | 65‑85 Ω/sq (nominal 75 Ω/sq) | Recommended production process window |
| 30 μm | 50‑70 Ω/sq | Thicker film → lower resistance, higher ink‑cost |
Note: Actual resistance will also be affected by screen mesh, squeegee pressure, oven air‑flow and substrate surface energy; pre‑production test is mandatory.
This YT‑581 silver‑carbon ink is primarily a conductive functional ink. It can be used for conductive‑circuit anti‑forgey marks (circuit‑type security label).
Security‑tip: For high‑level security projects, combine this conductive‑ink with micro‑printing or OVI optical‑variable ink to build multi‑level anti‑forgey ‑system.
Note: Not suitable for banknote‑grade currency printing; designed for membrane‑switch, flexible‑circuit and brand‑security‑label.
Q1: What is MOQ? A: Minimum order quantity is 1 kg. Small‑batch test sample available for press trial; sample freight borne by customer.
Q2: What is delivery lead‑time? A: Stock goods: ship within 3 working‑days after payment confirmed. Custom‑formula / OEM private‑label goods: 14‑18 working‑days.
Q3: What customization service can you provide? A: Adjust target sheet‑resistance value; add UV‑fluorescent / magnetic / IR‑responsive functional components; OEM private‑label sticker & custom carton‑packing; black‑carbon / silver‑filler ratio tuning.
Q4: Logistics & shipping options? A: Ink belongs to chemical liquid goods. International courier: FedEx, TNT, DHL, UPS, EMS. Large‑volume bulk‑order choose sea‑freight or air‑freight. Payment terms: T/T, Western Union, Paypal.
Q5: Measured sheet‑resistance is much higher than target 75Ω/sq? A: Check: 1) Insufficient curing‑temperature / curing‑time; 2) Ink over‑diluted with thinner (>5 %); 3) Printed dry‑film thickness too thin; 4) Ink conductive‑filler sedimentation, not fully stirred before printing. Adjust process parameters accordingly.
Q6: Poor adhesion on PET substrate? A: Confirm PET is corona‑treated; check oven curing condition; match recommended screen‑mesh parameter.
Q7: Can I mix this silver‑carbon conductive ink with ordinary screen CMYK ink? A: Strictly not recommended. Mixing will destroy conductive‑filler network and cause resistance sharp‑rise or total loss‑of‑conductivity. If mixing is unavoidable, carry out full lab electrical‑performance test first.
