Abstract: This invention discloses formulations of mutually compatible sets of graphene, graphene-carbon, metal and dielectric inks for the fabrication of high performance membrane touch switches (MTS). The compositions of these inks are optimized to achieve higher degree of compatibility with highly engineered polymeric substrates, thereby offering a holistic solution for fabricating high-performance MTS. These sets of materials can also be used for fabrication of sensors, biosensors and RFIDs on flexible substrates, such as polymers and papers.

Abstract: A method of producing a screen-printing stencil having open areas and blocked areas for respectively passage and blocking of a printing medium. The method includes providing a receptor element having an image-receiving layer capable of receiving a first chemical agent in areas corresponding to the blocked areas of the stencil to be produced. A first chemical agent is applied to the image-receiving layer of the receptor element in the corresponding areas. A second, stencil-forming chemical agent is then applied to a screen printing screen and the image-receiving layer fo the receptor element brought into contact with the stencil-forming agent to allow the first and second chemical agents to react to produce on the screen a stencil-forming layer having areas of lower solubility corresponding to the said blocked areas and areas of higher solubility in areas corresponding to the open stencil areas.
