Sun Chemical Printed Electronics Inks Verified by TactoTek for Production Use in IMSE Parts

Sun Chemical’s SunTronicIME inks are approved for production use in IMSE parts after passing the demanding materials testing program from TactoTek, a Finland-based company that develops, industrializes, and licenses in-mold structural electronics (IMSE) technology.

IMSE parts integrate printed electronics and electronic components within 3D injection molded plastics. They combine structure, electronic functions, and aesthetics in single piece, seamless smart surfaces. In IMSE parts, printed electronics can create many features, including circuitry, capacitive touch controls, proximity sensors and antennas. IMSE parts rely on printed silver-based conductive inks and dielectrics to enable multiple layers of printed electronics.
