DIELECTRIC INK COMPOSITION
The present invention relates to flexible and stretchable UV and thermally curable dielectric ink compositions that can be thermo or vacuum formed. The flexible ink can form a stretchable dielectric coating having excellent adhesion. The dielectric ink compositions can be applied on a circuit board, such as a paper-phenolic resin board, plastic board (PMMA, PET or the like) or a glass-epoxy resin board, by screen printing or the like, followed by heat/UV curing. The compositions are suitable for use in applications such as a capacitive touch, in-mold forming, creating cross over insulation layers, and manufacturing electronic circuitry and devices.

Process for forming a shaped film product
A process capable of commercial scale manufacturing of inexpensive, shaped film products includes placing a mask over a substrate; delivering a film-forming composition through a nozzle to form a raw shape on the substrate; removing the mask; and solidifying the film-forming composition to provide the shaped film product disposed on the substrate. The mask has a delivery surface and an opposite substrate-facing surface and at least one aperture having a design corresponding to the desired shaped film product. The nozzle is disposed in sealing engagement with the delivery surface of the mask to the at least one aperture of the mask during delivery of the film-forming composition.

POWDER FILM FORMING METHOD AND POWDER FILM FORMING DEVICE
A powder film forming method includes the steps of: filling an opening with a powder, the opening being formed in a screen plate; and forming the powder film by generating an electric potential difference between the screen plate and a substrate so as to cause the powder, which is filling the opening, to move to the substrate.
