Heraeus at LOPE-C - Touching the Future

---

---

With Heraeus advanced conductive materials 50 Ohm/Sq. has now been achieved. A new highly conductive material for touch and printed electronics technologies is to be unveiled at the LOPE-C (http://www.lope-c.com/) show in Munich 12-13th June.

The new range will start with Clevios(TM) (http://www.heraeus-clevios.com) HY 1, a material that is concentrating on the best available conductivity. Transmission levels of over 96% can also be achieved at higher levels of sheet resistivity. Clevios™ HY 1 is suitable for use as an electrode in touch screens and membrane switches. To be applied both on to plastics and glass the Clevios™ HY 1 offers a smooth and thin conductive film for use in devices. Clevios™ HY 1 can be printed by traditional methods including gravure and slot die.

Clevios(TM) HY 1 will be followed later this year with Clevios™ HT 1 that will concentrate more on transmission properties. The materials represent an evolution beyond standard PEDOT:PSS materials so far offered by Heraeus.
Formulations based on HY 1 for other application fields including OLEDs and organic solar cells are under development.

Samples of Clevios(TM) HY 1, subject to non-disclosure agreement, are available now. Full commercial quantities will be offered by the end of this year.
Dr Stephan Kirchmeyer, Global Business Manager at Heraeus commented "In addition to our existing range of PEDOT:PSS materials, we are pleased with the development into more highly conductive materials and formulations. Broadening the Clevios™ product range provides device producers a more options in the touch screen market." Firmen- & Pressekontakt
