Panasonic produces stretchable substrate for printed electronics applications

Panasonic has introduced BEYOLEX™, a new thermoset stretchable film polymer substrate for printed electronics (PE). This novel material is based on a proprietary non-silicone thermoset polymer chemistry developed by Panasonic researchers at the Electronic Materials laboratory in Kadoma, Osaka, Japan.

BEYOLEX™ features softness, conformability, high-temperature resistance, and ultra-low permanent deformation after stretching, says the company. The stretchable film is 100 microns in thickness, delivered on a high-temperature polyethylene naphthalate (PEN) carrier for mechanical stability during processing and a thin PET or polyester coversheet for protection...
