  • This paper was represented an electrostatics distribution analysis using FEM(finite element method) with industrial type Inkjet plotter. Here, we know electronic value with each system position by experiment. these were decreased by discharge through earth and electricity shielding. According to industrial development, all fields using chemical instrument and material are generated an electrostatics. Based on these, the big large position of electrostatics was obtained metal base of controller, nonconductor fiber between two rubber roller, head controller by moving roller etc., Therefore these were showed an electrostatics generation source and by rubbing and meager profits electric charge.

  • An EHD (Electro-Hydro-Dynamic) jet for electrostatic inkjet head shows advantages to print micro-size patterns using various inks because it can generate sub-micron droplets and can use highly viscous inks. Thus, many researchers in industrial fields are concerned about the EHD jet in these days. Since the basic principle of the EHD jet is to form a droplet from an apex of meniscus at the end of the nozzle, the ejection mechanism can be changed by the shape of the meniscus. The stable ejection of the droplet is greatly affected by the shape of the meniscus which is also influenced by surface characteristics of the nozzle, electric potential and ink properties. Experiments have been performed using the nozzles with hydrophilic and hydrophobic coatings in this study. The hydrophobic nozzle forms the stable droplets in wider range of the electric potential than the hydrophilic nozzle does.
