About NanoPrintek, Inc.

When it comes to printing electronics, sensors, micro-batteries/supercapacitors, etc.., what if instead of wet printing technologies (i.e., ink-jet and aerosol-jet) there was a dry printing additive nanomanufacturing technology that could enable: 1. On-demand and in-situ generation of various pure nanoparticles (e.g., metals, insulators, semiconductors, superconductors, ceramics, composites, etc.), 2. In-situ and real-time laser sintering of dry nanoparticles jet on various substrates (polyamide, PET, PDMS, paper, metal, ceramic, etc.), with no further post-processing. 3. Multi-material printing of hybrid and composite materials and structures. Wet Printing Technologies Challenges • Complex, costly, and eco-unfriendly ink formulation processes. • Limited availability of functional inks. • Transportation, shelf life, and storage difficulties of inks • Contaminations and impurities due to the use of solvents and additives for ink formulations. • Environmental pollution due to the necessity of removing and recycling solvent and surfactant after deposition. • Post-processing steps for curing the prints and removing surfactants and ink additives. • Limited or no multi-material printing of hybrid materials and composites. • Clogging and cleaning hassles. NanoPrintek Dry Printing Advantages • No need for inks and liquids. Requires solids targets (pellets) of the desired materials. • Easy transportation, shelf life, and storage. • On-demand and in-situ formation of dry and pure nanoparticles. • Real-time sintering and integration. • No post-treatment processes. • Environmentally friendly process due to the on-demand formation of nanoparticles as needed. • Advanced and Multifunctional materials printing. Hybrid, multimaterial and composite printing. • Suitable for printing electronics, sensors, micro-batteries/supercapacitors, catalysis, etc. • Simultaneous subtractive and additive processes for trenching/printing and localized repair.
