"POLYMER: conductive plastic could speed electronics manufacturing"
A conductive plastic that mixes electronics-functions into the material before it is cured could make possible products from disposable e-newspapers to large-scale organic LEDs that can be sprayed on walls. The patented plastic, Oligotron, was developed by TDA Research Inc. (Wheat Ridge, Colo.), under a National Science Foundation contract. Unlike earlier materials, it uses noncorrosive solvents to manufacture organic-polymer-based electronics products.
