L2M QC Spring 2025 | InkTiO: Revolutionizing Electronics with Sustainable Printed Solutions

The proposal seeks to improve the technology readiness of a new family of printable (liquid-based) ink formulations designed for the advanced manufacturing sector. These chelated sol-gel materials have a low viscosity, allowing their use in a commercial digital inkjet-printing equipment. Most importantly, they are designed to offer the unique ability to convert from liquid to ceramic under light exposure. In addition to make them compatible for use with more affordable substrate materials, these combined properties make them ideally-suited for high-speed and high-volume production. This project will focus on (1) improving these formulations and make them easier to produce and (2) perform a complete IP-landscaping in order to develop the IP portfolio.
