Investigation of curing silver conductive inks on fabrics using dlp projector and hot plate
This study is to investigate the curing of silver conductive ink tracks on fabrics using a combination of direct light projector (DLP) and hot plate since conventional curing process using laser and oven suffer from several weaknesses mainly costly process and warping defect. The fabrics used are ma...
