Creative Materials 126-45
126-45 is a screen-printable, electrically conductive ink, coating and adhesive suitable for application by stamping, screen printing, dipping and syringe dispensing. This product features excellent adhesion to Kynar, Kapton, Mylar, glass and can also be used on low surface energy coatings such as transparent conductive oxides. Unlike conventional conductive materials, this product is very resistant to flexing and creasing. Some applications for 126-45 include, but are not limited to, emi/rfi shielding of polyimide flexible circuits, polymer thick film circuitry, membrane switches, electrical attachments for surface mounted devices, and anode coatings for tantalum capacitors. 126-45 is a lower cost version of 120-07.\nFeatures

- Suggested Handling and Curing
126-45 is ready to use as supplied. Further thinning may be accomplished by adding small amounts of thinner 120-08. Prior to using, be certain to resuspend filler. Best properties for most substrates result when cured for 3 to 5 minutes at 110°C. Good properties can be achieved with cure temperatures ranging from 80 to 180°C. When using low surface energy substrates higher curing temperatures yield better adhesion. Using maximum curing temperatures is recommended. End user is advised to experimentally determine temperature and time best suited for individual applications.
