Embodiment 1-4

[0050] The following inkjet etch resist compositions were prepared:

[0051] Table 1

[0052]

[0053]

[0054]

[0055] 1 Acrylates from Cytec Industries

[0056] 2 Typical composition and characteristics: abietic acid <3wt%, dehydroabietic acid 6-10wt%, dihydroabietic acid 60-80wt%, tetrahydroabietic acid 5-15wt%, other resin acids and neutrals 10-15wt% %, softening point, Ring&Ball, ℃.=65-69, acid number 158-160

[0057] 3 Hercolyn Floral AX-E from Pinova solutions Inc.

[0058] 4 Hercolyn D-methylhydrorosinate from Pinova solutions Inc.

[0059] All formulations in Table 1 were prepared in the same way. The monomer, wax, plasticizer, and photoinitiator are mixed together at room temperature using conventional laboratory mixing equipment. Formula is 100% solids. The mixture was then heated in a conventional convection oven at a temperature ranging from 85°C to 90°C. The heated resist was then filtered through a conventional laboratory 1.5µ metal filt...

Embodiment 6

[0063] The method described in Example 5 was repeated on multiple copper-clad FR4 / glass epoxy three-dimensional curved panels in thicknesses of 15 μm-30 μm, except that the resist compositions were those prepared in Examples 2-4. The film is selected from polyester, polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polyimide (PI), polyolefin, polycarbonate, polyacrylate and ethylene vinyl acetate. The film does not contain any release agent. Each formulation was ink jetted onto each UV transparent film to form a pattern using the equipment and method described in Example 5. The film with the resist composition is then applied to the curved plate such that the resist is in contact with the curved plate. Each film was gently pressed and rolled with a squeegee to remove air under the film and allow the resist to adhere to the plate. UV light is applied to the film and the film is peeled off the plate. All resists cured and adhered to the board as expected. No resist remained on the membrane ...

Embodiment 7-13

[0066] Table 2

[0067]

[0068]

[0069] The seven resist formulations in Table 2 were all prepared in the same way. Using conventional laboratory mixing equipment, the monomer, acid wax, and free radical initiator mixture are brought together to form a homogeneous mixture. The mixture is heated in a conventional convection oven at 50°C to 90°C to liquefy components that cannot be mixed with other components due to their solid form. After mixing the individual components, cool to room temperature to form a 100% solids composition. The composition is expected to have an acid number greater than 100 mgKOH / g.

Abstract

Actinic radiation curable inks are selectively applied to flexible films which allow the transmission of actinic radiation and then are applied such that the side of the flexible films on which the curable inks are applied contact surfaces of three dimensional substrates. Actinic radiation is applied to the flexible films which cause the ink to cure on the three dimensional substrate. The flexible films are removed leaving the cured ink on the substrates.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the formation of images on three-dimensional substrates by inkjet printing of actinic radiation curable resist compositions using transfer films. More particularly, the present invention relates to the formation of an image on a three-dimensional substrate by inkjet printing of an actinic radiation curable resist composition using a transfer film, which is effective and wherein the image has improved resolution. Background technique [0002] Some substrates have three-dimensional surfaces on which imaging is challenging. For example, a unique imaging support is used in the gravure printing industry, which is usually made of steel or aluminum based cylinders. The cylinder is electroplated with copper and then chemically etched or electromechanically engraved so that the printed area is below the surface of the cylinder. In the imaging area, there are thousands of micro-sized elements to be etched or engraved into the c...
