Arjowiggins Develops PowerCoat Energizing Paper
Arjowiggins, France, has developed PowerCoat™, a cellulosic formulation and coating process that provides an ultra-smooth, flexible, highly sustainable substrate for printed electronics. The electronics substrate, made of paper, provides:
- High surface smoothness
- High thermal stability
- Excellent sintering behavior
- Improved control over electronic layer adhesion
- Superior stability in roll-to-roll processing
- Reduced overall production costs as less ink is required for printing
- A recyclable and biodegradable solution for all printed electronics needs.
Arjowiggins notes that the new cellulosic paper formulation and coating provide a unique, flexible substrate that opens up a world of possibilities in packaging, advertising, and other industries where there is a cross-over between the real and the virtual.
