Summary
Centre for Materials Research offers a new method and equipment for the production of metal-oxide composite materials for thick-film heating elements. The technology reduces the production costs of the elements more than 10 times compared to existing methods. The Centre seeks cooperation with industrial partners for license agreement, commercial agreement with technical assistance or joint venture agreement, and R&D institutions for a research cooperation agreement.
Description
The Centre for Materials Research developed a new method and equipment for the production of metal-oxide composite materials for thick-film heating elements with new properties. Produced materials can be used as a replacement for silver, gold, palladium, platinum, and their alloys in film heating elements.

In the developed film element are used oxidized carbonyl iron powder that significantly reduces the cost of the element.

To eliminate the destruction of the element upon switching on and instantaneous heating, the existing heating elements are made sectional of small sections to minimize thermal expansion.

Fundamentally new technology is proposed in the developed element, which allows excluding the influence of the thermal expansion of the element and thus increases the reliability of the element.

As substrates for heating elements based on metal oxide composite materials, both metallic and non-metallic materials can be used. Heating elements can be applied to the substrate using both screen printing and 3D printing.

The institute seeks cooperation with industrial partners for license agreement, commercial agreement with technical assistance, or joint venture agreement. R&D organization interested in improving the technology and equipment for the production of metal-oxide composite materials for thick-film heating elements based on oxidized carbonyl iron powder under a research cooperation agreement.
