Creative Materials 125-14
125-14 is a carbon-based, electrically conductive ink and coating suitable for application by stamping, screen printing, dipping and syringe dispensing. This product has improved thermal stability compared to 111-26 and features excellent adhesion to Kapton, Mylar, glass and a variety of other substrates. Unlike conventional conductive materials this product is very resistant to flexing and creasing. Some applications for 125-14 include, but are not limited to printed heaters, emi/rfi shielding of polyimide flexible circuits, polymer thick film circuitry, membrane switches, electrical attachments and static elimination. 125-14 can be blended with CMI's 126-48 (50 Ω/square) in any ratio to obtain in-between electrical conductivity.

- Suggested Handling and Curing
125-14 is ready to use as supplied. Further thinning may be accomplished by adding small amounts of CMI thinner 112-19. Prior to use, be certain to mix well to resuspend fillers. Best properties, for most applications, result when cured for 5 minutes at 125°C. Excellent properties are also obtained on a variety of substrates by curing at temperatures ranging from 50°C to 175°C. End user is advised to experimentally determine temperature and time best suited for individual applications.
