MANUFACTURING A CONDUCTIVE TRANSFER

Abstract: a method of manufacturing a conductive transfer, comprises the step of printing a non-conductive ink onto a release film to produce a first non-conductive ink layer and curing the first non-conductive ink layer. the method comprises printing an electrically conductive ink onto the first non-conductive ink layer to produce an electrically conductive ink layer and curing the electrically conductive ink layer; and printing a non-conductive ink over the electrically conductive layer to produce a second non-conductive ink layer and curing the second non-conductive ink layer. an adhesive material is printed over the second non-conductive ink layer to produce an adhesive layer and the adhesive layer is cured. the release film comprising the first non-conductive ink layer, electrically conductive ink layer, second non-conductive ink layer and adhesive layer is applied to a first substrate and at least one of heat or pressure is applied to the first substrate and release film such that the adhesive layer adheres to said first substrate. the first substrate comprises a thermoplastic polymer.
