Název projektu:
Viscous Liquid Dispenser for Uniform Coating on Micro-Structure (11 US 87GA 3M80)
Popis:
A large US company is looking for proposals for viscous liquid dispensers that can apply a uniform-thickness coating on convex-shaped micro-structures. They are interested In equipment supply, development contract and licensing.
The company seeks viscous liquid dispensers to apply coating on micro regions to develop small electronic modules. The challenge is to maintain a uniform coating thickness while applying a coating selectively onto the micro structures. Satisfactory dispensers have not been identified within the client's network.
The miniaturization trend of electronic components or semiconductors drives the advancement of bonding or printing technologies. Radical solutions also may arise from printed electronics community. With a belief that promising technologies may exist in the world, the client issues this open request.
The anticipated volumes of the dispensers would be 1.000 in production.
Anticipated approaches include but are not limited to the following:
- Control the coating thickness by applying pressure to the dropped liquid
Hermetically apply the pressure to dropped liquid on the surface
- Control the coating thickness by diffusing the dropped liquid over the surface
Apply micro vibration either to the dropped liquid or to the dispenser head by using piezo, ultrasonic, etc.
- Control the coating thickness by instantly solidifying the dropped liquid
Locally curing the dropped liquid before the liquid is expanded according to the gravity by using a local heating, etc.
- Control the coating thickness by activating the adhesion between dropped liquid and the target surface
Use of plasma technology, etc.
Technical Specifications / Specific technical requirements:
The viscous liquid is a fluid containing filler particles:
- Viscosity: =80cp
- Filler loading: 5 to 40 wt%
- Particle diameter: 10 to 50 µm
- Particle shape: nearly spherical.
Coating areas are top surfaces of convex shapes micro structures mounted on a substrate.
- Coatings area size: 0.5mm x 0.5 mm per structure
- Surface shape: contains steps hundreds of microns in height
- Surface materials: glass, ceramic, inorganic crystal, metal, or plastics
- Distance between target surfaces: ~10mm
Requirements for dispensers are as follows:
- Can selectively apply coating on the target surfaces even if they are surrounded by other taller structures.
- For no-contact type dispenser, can apply coating from at least 1mm away
- For contact type dispensers, dispenser head diameter must be =0.5mm x 0.5mm
- Coating thickness: a uniform thickness within a range of 100 to 250 µm (wet)
- Thickness variation: +/- 10% or smaller
- Time between dispensing: 0.5 sec (coating one surface and travelling the nozzle to the next surface).
Note: satisfying all the requirements is not mandatory at the proposal stage.

Requested Cooperation: License Agreement
Responses from companies (large or small, startups, etc.), hospital or academic researchers, contract research institutes, pharmacologists, nutritionists, medicinal chemists, drug formulators, biochemists, physiologists, alternative or traditional medicine providers, etc., from around the world are all welcome.
ANTICIPATED PROJECT PHASES OR PROJECT PLAN
The client will review submitted proposals and possibly ask clarifying questions or request supporting data before selecting suitable candidates. The client will execute non-disclosure agreements (NDA) with selected candidates, seek further information disclosure, and discuss specific development approaches. The client will request sample testing or visit and watch the dispenser demonstration at the proposer's premises in order to select the most promising candidates. The client will execute necessary agreements with the best candidate and proceed to validating and customizing the proposed system, if necessary (within 12 months). If validated promising, the system will be introduced to the client's for trial run. Specifics of any collaboration will be determined through consultation with concerned parties.
Note that this profile requires a convincing solution proposal. Please contact your local EEN to get the Response template and find more information on the specific process here: http://www.us-eu-match.com/index.cfm?action=processFlow
