Master Bond Polymer System X5SC Silver is a novel, highly cost effective, one component, electrically conductive, elastomer based adhesive/sealants for EMI/RFI shielding and related applications. It offers superior shielding over a wide frequency range, superior environmental resistance and excellent long term durability at a surprising modest cost.
Master Bond electrically conductive adhesive/sealant X5SC features uniquely favorable adhesive properties and can be easily applied to most surfaces including metals, ceramics, glass, rubbers, plastics, paper, wood, leather, concrete and stone, generally without the need for pretreatment. Application methods encompass use of air or airless spraying equipment, brushing, dipping and silk screening. Uniform continuous coatings characterized by high electrical conductivity and superior electromagnetic shielding effectiveness are readily formed which are highly resistant to weathering, abrasion, humidity and corrosion.
Master Bond Polymer Systems X5SC Silver one component electrically conductive adhesive/sealant cures readily at ambient temperature (tack free time 15-20 minutes, full cure overnight) or more quickly at outstanding toughness, good elevated temperatures (45 minutes to 1 hour at 140-150°F). The cured material exhibits environmental resistance and superior physical strengths as well as high electrical conductivity.
The Master Bond Electrically conductive X5SC is composed of superior oxidation and chemically inert high purity metal particles. The conductive particles have excellent heat dissipation characteristics and will not oxidize even when exposed for prolonged periods of time to an oxidizing environment. The service temperature range of the Master Bond X5SC adhesive/sealant is remarkably broad, from -80°F to + 300°F. It can be used directly from the container as no catalyst, accelerators, etc., have to be added. Viscosity can be adjusted so as to best meet specific application requirements with solvents such as toluene or xylene. Storage stability in original closed containers at ambient temperatures is 3 months.
