Slurry printing

Metal powder—glass powder—binder mixtures are used to apply conductive (or resistive) coatings to ceramics or metals, especially for printed circuits and electronics parts on ceramic substrates, such as multichip modules. Multiple layers of aluminum nitride [24304-00-5] AIN, or aluminay ceramic are fused with copper sheet and other metals in powdered form. The mixtures are appHed as a paste, paint, or slurry, then fired to fuse the metal and glass to the surface while burning off the binder. Copper, palladium, gold, silver, and many alloys are commonly used. 

Paper Production and Properties. During the paper production process, the wood pulp is mixed into an aqueous slurry, which is poured onto a continuously moving wire mesh and drained by gravity. Additional water is then squee2ed out of the paper by a felt web pressed from above. This pressed side, referred to as the felt side, has smaller, finer fibers and is therefore smoother. It is also the preferred printing side. 

The ink , when screen-printing, is a slurry of conductive carbon particles (sometimes in a solution of conductive resin) that flows smoothly when wet and sets quickly without losing definition and shape. Alternatively, conductive silver paint (as above) will perform the same function. 

Since n is less than unity, the apparent viscosity decreases with the deformation rate. Examples of such materials are some polymeric solutions or melts such as rubbers, cellulose acetate and napalm suspensions such as paints, mayonnaise, paper pulp, or detergent slurries and dilute suspensions of inert solids. Pseudoplastic properties of wallpaper paste account for good spreading and adhesion, and those of printing inks prevent their running at low speeds yet allow them to spread easily in high speed machines.

Nd2Ni04+5 powder was prepared by nitrate-citrate route as described by Courty, et a1. (1973). Stoichiometric amounts of neodymium and nickel oxides were dissolved in diluted nitric acid. After addition of a large excess of citric acid, the solution was dehydrated and heated until self-combustion of the precipitate to obtain submicronic precursor particles (Boehm, 2005). The final annealing was performed at 1000°C for 12 hours to obtain a single crystalline phase. The particles were then ball milled to obtain an average grain size (d0 5) of about 0.8 pm. A terpineol-based slurry was prepared from this powder and this was deposited on the electrolyte by screen printing and then sintered at 1100°C for three hours in air (Lalanne, 2008).
