Creative Materials 118-09A/B119-44

118-09A/B119-44 is a two component, solvent-resistant, electrically conductive ink, coating and adhesive suitable for screen-printing circuit lines. 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. It is also very resistant to scratching and creasing. Some applications for 118- 09A/B119-44 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, bus bars on Indium Tin Oxide sputtered surfaces, and anode coatings for tantalum capacitors. This product is designed for use in crossovers with CMI product 116-20, a UV curable dielectric.

Safety & Health

Safety & Handling

Use with adequate ventilation. Keep away from sparks and open flames. Avoid prolonged contact with skin and breathing of vapors. Wash with soap and water to remove from skin. Note: It is not unusual for crystallization of the Part B to occur. Warm to 40-45°C in a water bath to return the material to its original viscosity. The crystallization does not affect the performance of the product in any way.
