Screens for screen printing of electronic circuits
Abstract The present paper compares the properties of various screen material for printing thick film inks and pastes required to delineate thick film integrated circuits. Polyester monofilament screens possess well balanced properties of resiliency, print life, shock absorption, sufficiently low moisture absorption, etc. Stainless steel screens are suitable for fine line printing. The advantages and disadvantages of using any type of fabric are also discussed.
