Due to the development of the deep black opaque shade NORIPHAN® HTR N 990/011 NC, a carbon black-free, non-conductive black is available for printed electronics.

The color shade has a high optical density, an electrical resistance in the giga ohm range and is radar transmissible.

The black can be used for decorative prints but is mainly used for plane multi-layer pre-printing for conductive pastes.

Carbon-based pigments, so called carbon blacks, normally used for black colors, are electrically conductive and can interfere with the functional structures. NORIPHAN HTR N 990/011 NC meets the increased requirements regarding thermal resistance and the demanding hydrolysis test in the automotive industry.

The color shade has been formulated and optimized regarding the interlayer adhesion and shows good adhesion in compound values in the final film/ink/injection material composition.
