Film Tech Japan is Here!

Published April 10, 2013

The 4th Filmtech Japan Highly-Functional Film Technology Expo at Tokyo Big Sight starts April 10. Sono-Tek will be exhibiting at the Altech Co., Ltd. booth 44-29. Sono-Tek ultrasonic coating systems are used in R&D and high volume production for depositing functional thin film materials for advanced battery, Fuel Cell, OLED, touch screen (TCO spray pyrolysis) and many other electronics applications. Sono-Tek ultrasonic spray equipment has the ability to spray targeted micron thick layers of material in atmospheric conditions, making the technology a cost effective solution, especially for R&D applications using new materials. Fully inert spraying systems are available, and substrate heat/vacuum options depending upon manufacturer’s requirements. Sono-Tek spray equipment is ideally suited to depositing ultra-thin uniform functional layers of nanomaterials in suspension such as Carbon Nanotubes (CNTs), Nanowires, Graphene, Quantum Dots, photoresist, and transparent conductive oxides.

For more information on the show, go to http://www.filmtech.jp/en/ or to find out why Sono-Tek’s patented ultrasonic spray technology is so advantageous for depositing functional thin films, visit our web pages: http://www.sono-tek.com/nanowire-spray-applications/, http://www.sono-tek.com/carbon-nanotube-dispersion/, http://www.sono-tek.com/oled-organic-layer-coatings/, http://www.sono-tek.com/graphene-coatings/, http://www.sono-tek.com/tco-coating-equipment/.

Sono-Tek at Hannover Messe H2 & FC Fair

Published April 10, 2013

Sono-Tek is exhibiting at the Hannover Messes H2 & FC Fair, April 8-12 in Hannover, Germany Booth E65/2. Where does Sono-Tek fit into the Fuel Cell Manufacturing market? In coating technology, of course. Carbon catalyst inks deposited onto Proton Exchange Membranes such as Nafion are most effective when the catalyst is deposited uniformly across the surface of the PEM or GDL, with even distribution of platinum or other precious metal particles. This produces the maximum surface area exposure of platinum to gas flow. Sono-Tek’s proprietary ultrasonic coating systems and liquid delivery technology are ideal for this, and we’ve proven it time and time again. Measured electrochemically active Pt surface area using ultrasonic atomization has been recorded as high as 71% of the total Pt particle surface area. Visit Sono-Tek’s proprietary ultrasonic coating systems and liquid delivery technology are ideal for this, and we’ve proven it time and time again.
