Electroluminescent panel having a power lead directly affixed to a transparent electrode

Abstract From the Canadian patent

An electroluminescent panel and method of making the same includes a plurality of layers on a transparent electrode in which each layer is formed with the same compatible polymer carrier resin base material so that the individual layers have an integrated uniformity. A polyester laminating resin is disclosed for the resin base material of each layer which is activated by a small amount of diisocyanate sufficent to provide temperature stability, but insuffient to transform the base material into a urethane. Also disclosed is an electroluminescent lamp which emits light only in discrete areas such as to produce a pattern of light in which the phosphor is applied in a pattern corresponding to …
