Description
838AR is an economical conductive paint that
consists of a 1-part, solvent-based acrylic lacquer,
pigmented with highly conductive carbon powder. It is smooth, durable, and abrasion resistant. It can be easily applied by brush or spray. It has a quick dry time, with no heat cure necessary. It adheres strongly to most injection-molded plastics, such as ABS, PBT and PVA. It provides strong corrosion resistance and is suitable for use in marine environments.
838AR is excellent for creating grounded surfaces and in low frequency RFI shielding applications, such as pickup cavities on electric guitars. It is also perfect for shielding metal detectors and other devices where a metal-filled conductive paint would cause malfunction.
Features
- Surface resistivity: approximately 114 ω/sq for one coat (~1 mil)
- Provides > 50 dB of EMI/RFI shielding at frequencies < 1 MHz
- Cost effective conductive coating
- Quick dry time, No heat cure required, easy to apply
- Strong adhesion to Acrylic, ABS, Polycarbonate, and other injection Molded plastics
