Da/Pro Rubber Conductive Elastomers
- Chemical Family
- Silicones
Da/Pro Rubber Conductive Elastomers are rubber compounds that have been specially compounded and modified to make the rubber electrically conductive. The level of conductivity of rubber ranges from Insulative to Antistatic to EMI/RFI Shielding to Highly Conductive. The base polymer is an insulating material. Ingredients added to make a rubber compound effect the level of conductivity.

- HIGHLIGHTS
By varying the type and amount of ingredients, different levels of conductivity can be achieved. Antistatic compounds have lower conductivity and are used to bleed off static energy. This is important in electrical devicesincluding TVs, computers, cell phones, and any electronic devices that have integrated circuits (IC) chips and other components. EMI/RFI compounds are used to protect by shielding delicate electronic components. Highly Conductive materials provide compounds that can be as conductive as wire. To achieve EMI/RFI and highly conductive silicone compounds, compounding ingredients range from carbon black to graphene to metal coated/plated spheres to metals such as brass, copper, silver plated copper, silver and gold. The highest level of conductivity is silver and gold and cost accordingly.; The base polymer maintains its original characteristics; i.e., conductive silicone compounds still have the chemical properties as a non-conductive silicone compound. The different elastomers are used for the combination of original physical and chemical properties in combination with the conductivity level.; Da/Pro has a variety of compounds that have varying conductivity depending on customer requirements. These include fluid resistant, low and high temperature resistance, environmentally (ozone/oxygen/sunlight) resistant, etc. Some of the compounds include EPDM, Viton/FKM, perfluorintated/ FFKM, nitrile/Buna-N, Silicone, Fluorosilicone, Neoprene, urethane.
