A method of manufacturing an electronic device includes preparing a solder mask with a radiation curable solder mask inkjet ink containing at least one cationic polymerizable compound and a photoinitiating system, wherein the photoinitiating system includes a specified sulphonium compound and a thioxanthone.

An approach to precision additive fabrication uses jetting of cationic compositions in conjunction with a non-contact (e.g., optical) feedback approach. By not requiring contact to control the surface geometry of the object being manufactured, the approach is tolerant of the relative slow curing of the cationic composition, while maintaining the benefit of control of the deposition processes according to feedback during the fabrication processes. This approach provides a way to manufacture precision objects and benefit from material properties of the fabricated objects, for example, with isotropic properties, which may be at least partially a result of the slow curing, and flexible structures, which may not be attainable using conventional jetted acrylates.

A light diffusing ink for printing on transparent substrates suitable for being integrated with devices for lighting said substrate from the edge, in order to print drawings, graphics, letters on said substrate and also to realize a full-field background whose thickness varies as a function of users' requirements on the surface of said substrate. The coating printed on said substrate is consequently only visible whenever said substrate is lit laterally, whereas it is not visible in the absence of a lateral light.

In one aspect, inks for use with a three-dimensional (3D) printing system are described herein. In some embodiments, an ink described herein comprises 20-60 wt. % oligomeric curable material; 10-50 wt. % cyclocarbonate (meth)acrylate monomer; and 0.1-5 wt. % photoinitiator, based on the total weight of the ink. Additionally, in some cases, the ink further comprises one or more additional curable materials differing from the oligomeric curable material and the cyclocarbonate (meth)acrylate monomer. An ink described herein, in some embodiments, also comprises one or more additional component that are non-curable.
