Targeting Commercial Opportunities in Printed Electronics
MIGDAL HA'EMEK, ISRAEL / ACCESSWIRE / January 8, 2018 / PV Nano Cell, Ltd. (OTCQB: PVNNF) ("PV Nano Cell" or the "Company"), an innovative producer of conductive digital inks, announced today that its Sicrys™ technology, single-crystal, nanometric silver conductive inks for use in printed electronics (PE) and solar photovoltaics (PV) applications has received industry recognition.
The Company submitted a proposal in the framework of the European Commission (EC) Horizon 2020, and, after an evaluation by an international panel of independent experts, was granted a Seal of Excellence, representing a high-quality score in a highly competitive evaluation process. The achievement was based on accelerating the uptake of nanotechnologies advanced materials and advanced manufacturing and processing technologies by SMEs.
Additionally, the prestigious Royal Society of Chemistry published a paper jointly co-authored by the PV Nano team and Professor David Zitoun and his group from the Bar Ilan University. The paper highlights the mechanism that produces Sicrys™ particles (RSC Adv. 2017, 7, 54236 D. Zeitun et-al).
These recent accolades are in addition to the fact that Sicrys™ inks have been and are tested by many others and positive published results. For example: a paper published by the prestigious Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy Systems "Comparison of innovative metallization approaches for Si HJT ; Fraunhofer ISE (2017); D. Erath et-al" (available on-line at www.sciencedirect.com); a paper published by Professor Shacham-Diamond group in the Tel Aviv University (printed electronics and antenna design and research experts) "Flexible Electrochemical Biochip Array of Patterned Gold on Silver Inkjet Printed Polyimide, Y. Shacham-Diamond et-al, ECS Transactions, 77 (11) 893-910 (2017).
PV Nano Cell Chief Executive Officer, Fernando de la Vega, commented, "We appreciate all of this positive recognition and believe it will assist us in our 2018 goals, which is to drive commercialization. We believe our differentiated complete solution is ideal for digital printing of electronics and we are well positioned to take advantage of an increasing amount of opportunities in our targeted markets."
