“…10,29 Added to the very short cycle times (\ 3 s), it becomes evident that the adhesive rheological properties must be optimized and precisely adjusted to meet all these requirements. Typically measured rheological properties for the printing process are the shear-dependent viscosity, 21,23,[29][30][31] yield stress, 21,24,31 viscoelasticity, [21][22][23]29,30 thixotropic behaviour 13,[29][30][31][32] and extensional behaviour. 22,24,30,31 These properties should be adjusted to facilitate the adhesive aperture filling and separation from the stencil, avoiding unwanted effects, such as filament stretching, 22,24,25 spreading, 24,33 superficial irregularities 10 and bubbles.…”
