Creative Materials 126-28

126-28 is a carbon filled, screen-printable, electrically conductive ink suitable for application by screen-printing, dipping and syringe dispensing. This product features excellent adhesion to Kapton, Mylar, and a variety of other surfaces. Unlike conventional conductive materials, this product is very resistant to flexing and creasing. 126-28 can be useful in biomedical applications, biosensors, printed heaters, resistive elements and coatings, and for electronic component manufacturing. 126-28 is designed to be age and chemically resistant.

Suggested Handling & Curing

126-28 is ready to use as supplied. Further thinning may be accomplished by adding small amounts of CMI Thinner 113-12. Prior to using, be certain to re-suspend filler. Best properties, for most applications, result when cured for a few minutes at 175°C. Good properties are obtained on a variety of substrates by dry and curing at temperatures ranging from 110°C to 180°C. Not recommended for applications that cannot cure above 110°C. End user is advised to experimentally determine temperature and time best suited for individual applications.
