Project #K-1117,“Development of Technology of Electra- and Heatconductive Metallized Polyimide Constructs with High Reflectivity”, was completed in December 2009. The Project was implemented at the Institute of Chemical Sciences and Kazakh National University, in Kazakhstan.
A pilot plant for production of metalized polymeric films and coating was developed by the Project team in close cooperation with EU Collaborators - University of Montpellier 2 and Paul Cezanne University of Marseille, in France.
High distribution nano-grade of metal has exceeded parameters of similar products existing on today’s market. The metalizing process stands out because of the relatively low energy required for production, which promises low technological prime cost to manufacture. The team is preparing a new project for the testing of an experimental-production line with a productive capacity of up to 20 meters of metal-coated polymeric films per day at various thicknesses. Additionally, it is planned to perform testing of their prototypes at the Russian section of the International Space Station.
Outcome:The end commercial products using development results are flexible base/board of electronics and radio-technical devices with long operational life; light reflecting devices or venetian blinds and so on. the thermo-stability and flexibility of the developed polymeric films provides adaptability and broad assortment of the end commercial product.
