<strong>ORGACON</strong> <br />
<strong>ORGACON</strong> <br />
Orgacon products are transparent coating<br />
solutions based on conductive polymer, which can<br />
be used as alternative material to ITO (Indium Tin<br />
Oxide) for electrodes and antistatic layers.<br />
Orgacon products are used in applications such<br />
as touch screens, mobile phone and pda displays,<br />
dashboard panels etc.
<strong>ORGACON</strong> <br />
PEDOT/PSS is widely used in industrial applications<br />
and is the most processable, transparent and stable<br />
intrinsic conductive polymer having a conductivity<br />
independent from relative humidity.<br />
The active component in <strong>ORGACON</strong> products is the<br />
water based electronic conductive polymer dispersion<br />
PEDOT/PSS. This transparent conductive polymer was<br />
developed and implemented. More than 15 years ago,<br />
this transparent as an antistatic protection coating on<br />
photographic materials. It can be used without any<br />
problem as transparent antistatic and ESD protection<br />
coating on plastic films and other objects.<br />
<strong>ORGACON</strong> products include: transparent conductive<br />
coating solutions, coated films and inks.<br />
<strong>ORGACON</strong> is printable, flexible and even thermal or<br />
cold formable. This enables a variety of new applications<br />
as wearable and shape integrated electronics.<br />
Transparent inorganic vacuum deposited coatings (ITO)<br />
do not have these “flexible” application opportunities!
Printability<br />
With screen printing inks a transparent conductive<br />
pattern can directly be applied onto the substrate.<br />
An assortment of different inks is available.<br />
Inks for other printing technologies are under<br />
development, samples are available.<br />
The required resolution of the pattern to be printed,<br />
defines the printing technology and the ink properties.<br />
In principle, any type of surface can be printed on,<br />
but a pre-treatment of specific surfaces can be required.<br />
Flexibility<br />
<strong>ORGACON</strong> inks can be printed on very flexible and<br />
tissue like substrates, and even multiple flexing has no<br />
impact on its conductivity.<br />
Orgacon’s flexibility opens a world of new applications;<br />
even wearable electronics become a possibility.<br />
For applications where mechanical flexibility determines<br />
lifetime (flexible EL-lamps, touch screens) <strong>ORGACON</strong> <br />
will be a good choice.<br />
Formability<br />
In some applications it can be beneficial to coat the<br />
conductive coating or print the design of a device on<br />
a flat film and form the printed film into a 3D object<br />
afterwards. Some examples of this process are applied<br />
in ESD protective packaging of electronic components<br />
or in 3D EL-lamps made by in-mould technology. As the<br />
<strong>ORGACON</strong> electrode will survive the forming and the<br />
high temperature resin injection process, this results into<br />
low cost production processes. The electronic device is<br />
integrated into a 3D object.<br />
Patterning<br />
<strong>ORGACON</strong> films can be patterned by a chemical<br />
treatment (de-activation liquid) which changes the path<br />
from conductive to non- conductive without lifting off<br />
the coated layer. In this way a nearly invisible conductive<br />
pattern for touch screens and displays can be made.<br />
<strong>ORGACON</strong> films can also be laser light patterned.
