Current IssueVoices of the Industry
We take the pulse of the PCB industry by sharing insights from leading fabricators and suppliers in this month's issue. We've gathered their thoughts on the new U.S. administration, spending, the war in Ukraine, and their most pressing needs. It’s an eye-opening and enlightening look behind the curtain.
The Essential Guide to Surface Finishes
We go back to basics this month with a recount of a little history, and look forward to addressing the many challenges that high density, high frequency, adhesion, SI, and corrosion concerns for harsh environments bring to the fore. We compare and contrast surface finishes by type and application, take a hard look at the many iterations of gold plating, and address palladium as a surface finish.
It's Show Time!
In this month’s issue of PCB007 Magazine we reimagine the possibilities featuring stories all about IPC APEX EXPO 2025—covering what to look forward to, and what you don’t want to miss.

Creative Materials, Unveils Economical Conductive Ink and High Dielectric Strength Ink for Advanced Electronic Applications
September 11, 2024 | Creative Materials, Inc.Estimated reading time: 1 minute

Creative Materials Inc., an innovator of materials for the electronics industry, is pleased to announce the launch of two new high performance ink products:
125-10ADP Economical Conductive Ink and 130-05GL High Dielectric Strength Ink. These advanced inks represent a significant advancement in the realm of electronic manufacturing providing enhanced performance, reduced costs, and greater reliability.
125-10ADP Economical Conductive Ink
The 125-10ADP Economical Conductive Ink is designed to meet the growing demand for cost-effective solutions without compromising performance. This ink is user friendly, offers high mechanical strength, electrical conductivity and excellent adhesion to a variety surfaces, making it ideal for use in a variety of applications including membrane switches, flexible electronics, printed circuit boards (PCBs), and sensors.
Key features of the 125-10ADP ink include:
- Reliability: Delivers consistent electrical performance with low resistivity.
- Cost-Effectiveness: Provides a high-quality solution at a competitive price, enabling cost savings for manufacturers.
- Versatility: Suitable for use on a wide range of substrates, including treated and untreated polyester, urethanes and polyimide.
130-05GL High Dielectric Strength Ink
In parallel, the 130-05GL High Dielectric Strength Ink addresses the critical need for materials with outstanding insulation properties. This novel ink is engineered to provide high dielectric strength (2,500 volts/mil). 130-05GL is a high gloss ink particularly suited for flexible cross-over circuitry applications.
Notable benefits include:
- High Dielectric Strength: Ensures insulation and safety in high energy products.
- Mechanical Durability: Offers enhanced resistance to environmental stressors such as abrasion, humidity, and temperature fluctuations.
- Flexibility: Maintains performance across a range of operating conditions and substrates.
Driving Innovation and Efficiency
“Creative Materials is committed to pushing the boundaries of material science to deliver products that drive innovation in the electronics industry,” said Matthew Ganslaw, Executive Vice President of Creative Materials Inc. “With the introduction of 125-10ADP and 130-05GL inks, we are providing our customers with solutions that not only meet, but exceed the demands of modern electronic applications, while also helping them achieve greater efficiency and cost-effectiveness.”
