Abstract:
A composite is disclosed for use in electro-luminescent devices. The composite includes polymeric material having a first surface energy, and phosphorescent material dispersed within said polymeric material. The phosphorescent material has a second surface energy, said first and second surface energies are each between about 32 dynes/cm and 46 about dynes/cm. The polymeric material has a moisture vapor transmission rate of a at least one gram/100 sq. inches for a 24 hour period at 100 °F for a one mil thick barrier.
Abstract:
A water vapor permeable composite is disclosed for use in electroluminescent devices. The composite includes polymeric material having a first surface energy, a phosphorescent material dispersed within at least a portion of said polymeric material; and an electrically conductive material on at least one side of said polymeric material. The conductive material has a second surface energy, said the first and second surface energies are each between about 32 dynes/cm and 46 about dynes/cm. The polymeric material has a moisture vapor transmission rate of at least one gram/100 sq. inches for a 24 hour period at 100° F. for a one mil thick barrier.
Abstract:
The invention provides a thin film transferable composite comprising a carrier film, a first electrically conductive material, and adhesive. The first electrically conductive material is formed as a deposit on the carrier film and is integrally associated with first portions of the composite, and separably associated with second portions of the composite. The adhesive is arranged to coat with the first electrically conductive material for applying the composite to a receiving surface. The carrier film is separable from the second portions of the electrically conductive material with the first portions of the electrically conductive material remaining with the carrier film. The second portions of the electrically conductive material define a transferable electrical component.
