Polymertronics’ UV curable OLED materials offer increased durability, fast manufacture and rapid curing times, relative to conventual OLED technologies.


OLEDs are a flat-display technology, made by placing a series of organic-polymer thin films between two conductors. When a low DC voltage is applied across the conductors, a light is emitted from the organic film.


OLEDs have a number of advantages over liquid crystal, and electroluminescent displays:


  1. BulletSimple construction

  2. BulletFlexible display devices

  3. BulletNo backlighting requirement

  4. BulletLow power consumption

  5. BulletWide viewing angle


Polymertronics provides light emissive polymer, “the jam in the sandwich” fluid for OLEDs. There are companies in the printable electronics industry that provide electrode and encapsulation materials. Plus there are 12,000+ UV-inkjet printers globally, which can be used print OLEDs with colour graphics.

Polymertronics provides products and expertise, for a OLED solutions, enabling you to get your products to market first:

Flexible display

  1. BulletZero lead-time for production

  2. BulletLow product waste

  3. BulletCuring time less than 4 seconds

  4. BulletHighly durable

  5. BulletIdeal for flexible bespoke light displays

  6. BulletPrintable with UV curable colour graphics

  7. BulletRetrofit to existing UV-inkjet printers

Polymertronics is a technology company, based in Oxfordshire, UK. Polymertronics is a technology enabler, specialising in developing ultra-violet (UV) curable organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs).


Polymertronics technology has some unique selling points which make it an attractive solution for new displays:
