Jones, 3M Corporate Research Process Laboratory The miniaturization of portable electronic devices, including convergence of functions, integration of packaging and pace of innovation demand reduction of weight and thickness of individual components, as well as
Freshure® Coatings: Environmentally Friendly Barrier Coatings Paid Members Public
Presented by Shahab Jahromi, Knowfort Technologies BV Roll-to-roll vacuum deposition of hard materials (inorganic and metallic) has been the method of choice to producing functional coatings in various industries such as semiconductor and flexible packaging. Vacuum deposition of soft organic materials on the other hand is still in its infancy
A Novel QA Approach to combined In-line Defect/Pinhole Detection and Coating Opacity Measurement Paid Members Public
Presented by Mr. Matthieu Richard, Mr. Olivier Porret, BOBST The issues associated with quality control in the coating process of flexible materials will be presented, with particular emphasis on new market trends and applications where in-line defect/pin-hole detection and measurement techniques are required. A new compact technical solution operating
Thin Film Slot Coating in a Rarefied Low Viscosity Gas Paid Members Public
Presented by H. Benkreira and J.B. Ikin, University of Bradford A key limitation of the slot coating process when attempting to coat very thin films is due to air entrainment. We show in this research that by replacing the air with a low viscosity gas and reducing the pressure

Contact Cleaning for Functional Coatings in Emerging Technologies Paid Members Public
Presented by Sheila Hamilton, Teknek Limited Appropriate application of contact cleaning within production of coated products can significantly reduce defects caused by particulate contamination. In the emerging technologies such as OPV, Plastic Electronics and Displays there is a requirement for high barrier coatings where even tiny defects are detrimental to
High rate low pressure PECVD for barrier and optical coatings Paid Members Public
Presented by Steffen Günther, Matthias Fahland, John Fahlteich, Björn Meyer, Steffen Straach, Nicolas Schiller, Fraunhofer Institute for Electron Beam and Plasma Technology (FEP) Two types of new plasma enhanced CVD (PECVD) technologies were developed. The main benefits of these DC-magnetron based PECVD (magPECVD) and hollow cathode arc driven PECVD (arcPECVD)
