Creative Materials Introduces New Gold Conductive Ink, Coating and Adhesive
May 28, 2020 | Creative Materials, Inc.Estimated reading time: Less than a minute

Creative Materials, Inc. has introduced a new economical gold conductive ink, coating and adhesive. CMI’s 128-24 maximizes the effectiveness of the gold in order to establish conductivity with the least amount of gold possible. This product features excellent adhesion to Polyimide, polyester, glass and other smooth high-energy surfaces. Unlike typical gold inks, 128-24 offers high coverage and low cost. Some applications include, but are not limited to, working electrodes, transdermal drug delivery, electrochemical sensors, tens electrodes and muscle stimulation devices. 128-24 is also useful for printing non-oxidizing gold electrodes when smooth surfaces or fine features are not required.
Creative Materials designs, develops, and custom manufactures specialty electronic inks and adhesives. The company holds both ISO9001 and ISO14001 certifications. All products are manufactured in the USA.
