NORMAN, OK – April 8, 2011-– SouthWest NanoTechnologies, Inc. (SWeNT), the leader in high quality, single-wall and specialty multi-wall carbon nanotubes (CNT), will be exhibiting at the Society of Information Display SID 2011 Annual Business Conference in booth 1536.

The 49th SID International Symposium, Seminar and Exhibition, known as Display Week 2011, is the premier international gathering of scientists, engineers, manufactures and users in the field of electronic information displays.   The conference and trade show runs from Sunday, May 15^th to Friday, May 20^{th at} The Los Angeles Convention Center.

SWeNT will be demonstrating applications for its line of conductive and semi-conductive CNT inks for flexible printed electronics and displays.  SWeNT^® CNT Inks are based on V2V™ Ink technology developed by alliance partner, Chasm Technologies, Inc.  Using Single-Wall CNTs (SWCNTs), these inks can be printed using commercial, high-volume printing methods and equipment, including flexographic, gravure and screen printing.

The breakthrough process eliminates the need for subtractive patterning as well as post-production processes needed to remove ink dispersants and surfactants that are present with other printable CNT inks that degrade optoelectronic performance.  Combined with SWeNT’s unique ability to tailor the synthesis of CNT materials for applications (using its patented CoMoCAT® process), customers are able to print large area, low-cost devices for a wide range of applications including affordable displays, photovoltaics and printed electronics.
