Five Star Technologies Opens New Representative Office in China
Shanghai, China. June 18, 2009. Five Star Technologies, Inc. ("Five
Star") has opened a Representative Office in Shanghai to support local
customers and develop its fast-growing solar inks business in China.
The Shanghai site offers a central hub from which Five Star will
support Yangtze Delta Area customers and the entire China market. The
office will be led by Xinyu Liu, Director, Business Development for
Five Star China.
Five Star Technologies, based in Cleveland, Ohio, USA, markets the
ElectroSperse™ line of high performance contact inks for the photovoltaic
market. Five Star uses its patented cavitation process technology to create inks
with unmatched particle uniformity and particle sizes in the low to sub-micron
range. ElectroSperse solar inks develop denser, more conductive grid lines,
lower contact resistance, and more predictable emitter layer penetration, all of
which help customers improve efficiency and produce more watts per cell.
ElectroSperse S-500 series silver front side contact inks can be screen
printed to grid lines as narrow as 75 µm, while also achieving consistent
contact to emitter layers. S-500 inks fire to very dense structures with low
series resistances, enabling low cost of ownership for the user. New additions
include ElectroSperse S-546, a high solids product for high aspect ratio
printing, and ElectroSperse S-570, specially formulated to contact high
resistivity shallow emitters. ElectroSperse S-680, aluminum back surface field
ink, is a RoHS-compliant, low-bow formulation tailored to work effectively in
conjunction with the front side inks.
"Five Star continues to develop and commercialize advanced inks for the solar
industry. We are pleased to open a new office in Shanghai, allowing us to
collaborate more closely with our customers in the region. It is the beginning
of a great future for Five Star in China," said Timothy Fahey, Vice President,
Business Development.
The Shanghai Office is located in 12/F Platinum, 233 Tai Cang Road,
Xintiandi, Shanghai. Five Star also operates sales offices in the USA, Taiwan,
India, Spain and South Korea. For more information, please visit Five Star
