1. A method for producing a circuit board having conductive circuit elements with a specific resistivity of less than 0.05 ohm-cm2 patterned on a nonconductive substrate comprising:
- a. printing a U.V. curable ink onto the nonconductive substrate in a desired circuit pattern, andb. effecting U.V. radiation cure of the U.V. curable ink by exposing said U.V. curable ink to a U.V. source having an output in a region between 360 nm and 420 nm in a pulsing manner consisting of 5 to 8 one-half second exposure periods, each exposure period followed by a non-exposure period of about 2 to 3 seconds.

Abstract
A method for producing a circuit board involves printing a U.V. curable ink onto a substrate in a desired circuit pattern and curing the ink by exposing it to a pulsed U.V. source having an output in the region between 360 nm and 420 nm in a pulsing manner consisting of 5 to 8 one-half second exposure periods where each exposure period is followed by a non-exposure period of about 2 to 3 seconds.
