  • Publication number: 20180079924
    Abstract: A binder-free conductive ink with a conductive cage architecture for the wireless antenna with adhesion enhancement by carbon powders that aims to enormously reduce the solid content of conductor and can be used to print antennas. For example, silver content of the ink composition is greatly decreased due to the absence of insulated binder. Carbon powders (such as graphene nanoplatelets) are added as a conductive “cage” to reduce the use of insulated binder and significantly improve the conductivity of ink under low addition of conductor. Compression after printing is an innovative finding that not only improves the adhesion of a binder-free conductive ink with a conductive cage architecture but also enhances its conductivity. Such effects are credited to excellent contact between interfaces of particles and substrate. The unique recipe and process save printing from high-temperature sintering, further reducing processing cost and widening applicable substrates.

  • Patent number: 9888578
    Abstract: A printed graphene-based laminate for wireless wearable communications can be processed at low temperature so that it is compatible with heat-sensitive flexible materials like papers and textiles. The printed graphene-based laminate is of high conductivity, high flexibility, light weight and low cost, making it perfect candidate for wireless wearable devices. As a proof of concept, printed graphene-based laminate enabled transmission lines (TLs) and antennas were designed, fabricated and characterized. To explore its potentials in wearable communications applications, mechanically flexible transmission lines and antennas under various bended cases were experimentally studied. The measurement results demonstrate that the printed graphene laminate can be used for RF signal transmitting, radiating and receiving, which represents some of the essential functionalities of RF signal processing in wireless wearable communications systems.

    Abstract: A highly porous heat dissipation coating by graphene-rich baking varnish consists of: graphene nanoflakes, at least one dispersants, binders, and carriers. The amount of graphene-rich nanoflakes accounts for 10 to 70 wt % of solid composition of a graphene baking varnish. The at least one dispersant is non-ionic or ionic dispersant. The binder is made of thermoplastic polymers. The carrier is selected from aqueous liquids, organic solvents, or a combination thereof. A post-baking treatment at relative high temperature (100 to 400° C.) is applied for enhancing the adhesion of heat dissipation coating on metal surface. Accordingly, the graphene-rich baking varnish enhances adhesion and improves heat dissipation rate by convection and radiation.
