SAFI-Tech uses supercooled liquid metal particles to solder electronic components without heat
SAFI-Tech is a startup company with a patent-pending technology that uses supercooled liquid metal particles to solder electronic components without heat. The liquid metal powder of these particles is their patented Liquital® 62 product the company is commercializing.SAFI-Tech's supercooled metal inks enable flexible electronics manufacturers to form interconnects or conductive traces without thermal damage. The technology consists of water-balloon-like microparticles of liquid metal solders in a metastable supercooled state. These particles can be mechanically broken or chemically triggered to release the liquid metal, which then rapidly solidifies. SAFI-Tech's vision is to provide supercooled metal technology to electronics manufacturers to solve issues caused by high temperature processes . SAFI-Tech was award the Technical Development Materials Award at the 2016 IDTechEx Show.
