UV curable ink

2007-01-24 by wnnelson0

Does anybody have idea if a UV curable ink would work in the inkjets? 
From what I've read these can be very chemically resistant. The UV 
source and curing times appear to be a little critical though. They 
make formulas just for metal so it seems to be a possibility. I know 
nothing about inks so this may seem like a dumb ?. I was also thinking 
there could be other products that might go through the printer without 
plugging it up. A very thinned out plastic?, or ?. Also for the 
chemists could the board be coated with something (part A) and then 
printed with something else (part B) to make a hard resist? I'm trying 
to think of something that may make a little thicker layer on the board 
than ink does.
