Not so long ago, any discussion about plastics in electronics didn't get much beyond epoxy resins for circuit boards. But times have changed. Today, the talk is about flexible displays and sensory walls, almost completely made from polymer technology, including the electronics. And on a slightly less mind-boggling scale, the market for what sometimes is called 3D circuit boards, but which in fact is injection-moulded interconnect devices, is growing sharply.
