Ink Preparation

Inks for electrodes, terminals, resistors, dielectric layers etc. are commonly prepared by mixing the metal or ceramic powders required with an organic vehicle to produce a paste for screen-printing. To achieve a homogeneous ink the mixed components of the ink may be passed through a three roll mill. Alternatively, ready made inks may be obtained from one of the many companies offering products for the thick film technologist.

Famous quotes containing the words ink and/or preparation:

    Traveling takes the ink out of one’s pen as well as the cash out of one’s purse.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    Living each day as a preparation for the next is an exciting way to live. Looking forward to something is much more fun than looking back at something—and much more constructive. If we can prepare ourselves so that we never have to think, “Oh, if I had only known, if I had only been ready,” our lives can really be the great adventure we so passionately want them to be.
    Hortense Odlum (1892–?)
