DESCRIPTION CI-1016 is a conductive ink with very low electrical resistance properties. The
main uses of CI-1016 are for membrane switches, RFID antennas, and printed
conductors. Printers can save on ink costs, because they can print CI-1016
thinner than most other conductive inks. CI-1016 adheres to a wide spectrum of
substrates including polyester, polycarbonate, paper, fabric, and most plastic
films. CI-1016 is formulated to have superior flexibility and fast curing
properties. CI-1016 is application ready with no dilution needed. CI-1016 uses
unique solvents to give printers very long screen residence time under harsh
conditions.
