Glass Frit Composition And Ceramic Inkjet Ink Comprising The Same

Patent No. EP3242915 (titled "Glass Frit Composition And Ceramic Inkjet Ink Comprising The Same") was filed by Fenzi on Jan 7, 2015. The application was issued on Sep 8, 2021.

Patent Summary

A glass frit composition for ceramic inkjet inks, comprising particles with a volume particle size distribution Dv90 of 0.1-1 µm, preferably 0.5-0.8 µm. The composition is produced by a process involving dry-milling of a mixture of metal oxides, followed by wet-milling with a solvent. The resulting frit is used to formulate a ceramic inkjet ink with a viscosity of 6-20 mPa.s, surface tension of 20-40 mN/m, and a Dv90 of less than 2 µm. The ink is suitable for printing on ceramic substrates such as glass, and can be jetted at temperatures between 30-45°C.
