A printed board, a screen-printing ink, and a screen-printing method are provided. The printed board comprises a printed pattern and/or printed line which comprises a polymer binder and a fluorine-based surfactant, has excellent thickness uniformity and straightness, has no edge top defect, and is not damaged even when formed on a repeatedly folded substrate.

A liquid dispersion made by a process is disclosed. The process includes forming multicellular networks having a diameter of 1,000 μm or smaller by at a temperature of 1100° C. or less, in the presence of a powder of template particles, forming carbon shells, each of the carbon shells generally encapsulating a template particle and together with the encapsulated template particle comprising a heterostructure. The heterostructure comprises a particle diameter of 1,000 μm or smaller and a morphology of interconnected structural subunits and, between the structural subunits, exohedral pores.

Provided herein are methods and compositions comprising a non-toxic ferromagnetic ink composition. Also provided herein are plastic objects containing a surface coating of a food-safe ferromagnetic ink composition. The coating imparts functionality to a plastic object such that the object is capable of being mechanically separated from waste stream using a commercial magnetic separator. The food-safe ink composition, which can be printed using high-speed flexographic, intaglio, offset printing or pad printing, combined with heat transfer printing or hot foil stamping consists of an ingestible magnetically susceptible pigment capable of rendering the printed template with magnetically active properties. The surface of the plastic object described can consist of geometric designs which increase printable surface area without significant changes in dimensions of the said object.
