Creative Materials 126-21C

126-21C is a one-component, solvent-resistant, electrically conductive ink, coating and adhesive suitable for screen-printing circuit lines. 126-21C can also be thinned with fast evaporating solvents such as MEK for spray application. This product features excellent adhesion to Kapton, Mylar, glass, polycarbonate and a variety of other substrates. Unlike conventional conductive materials, this product is very resistant to methyl ethyl ketone after curing even at low temperatures. It is also very resistant to scratching and creasing. Some applications for 126-21C include, but are not limited to, emi/rfi shielding of polyimide flexible circuits, polymer thick film circuitry, membrane switches, electrical terminations for surface mounted devices, and bus bars on Indium Tin Oxide (ITO) sputtered surfaces. 126-21C is a pre-catalyzed version of 126-21A/B.
