The invention provides an inkjet method for producing a solder mask in the manufacture of a Printed Circuit Board. By using a solder mask inkjet ink containing at least one photoinitiator, at least one free radical polymerizable compound and at least one mercapto functionalized carboxylic acid as adhesion promoter, a high quality solder mask withstanding the high thermal stress during the soldering process while maintaining excellent physical properties, may be produced.

The present invention relates to formulations for impregnating a porous sintered material and the use as well as methods for impregnating a porous sintered material. More specifically, the present invention relates to formulations for impregnating a porous sintered material, said formulation comprising 40-90 wt.-% of an acrylic monomer, 0.1-10 wt.-% of a radicalic thermal initiator, 0.1-10 wt.-% of a radicalic photoinitiator, 0-30 wt.-% of an organosilane adhesion promoter and 0-5 wt.-% of a siliconic surfactant. Further the invention relates also to a method for impregnating a porous sintered material, comprising the steps of dipping the porous material into a liquid formulation comprising an acrylic monomer; a radicalic thermal initiator; and a radicalic photoinitiator; vacuum treating of the dipped porous material; removing of excess liquid from the surface of the porous material; exposing of the porous material to light radiation; and heat treating of the porous material.

The present invention relates to the field of magnetic assemblies, magnetic apparatuses and processes for producing optical effect layers (OEL) comprising magnetically oriented non-spherical magnetic or magnetizable pigment particles on a substrate and providing an impression of a crescent moon-shaped element moving or rotating upon tilting the optical effect layer (OEL). In particular, the present invention relates to magnetic assemblies, magnetic apparatuses and processes for producing said OELs as anti-counterfeit means on security documents or security articles or for decorative purposes.
