Creative Materials 126-48

126-48 is an electrically conductive ink/coating for application by screen-printing, dipping and syringe dispensing. The product features excellent adhesion to Kapton, Mylar, glass and a variety of other substrates. Unlike conventional conductive materials, this product is very resistant to abrasion, scratching, flexing and creasing. Some applications for 126–48 include, but are not limited to, emi/rfi shielding of polyimide flexible circuits, polymer thick film circuitry, and membrane switches. 126-48 is a higher viscosity version of 112- 48.

Suggested Handling & Curing

126-48 is ready to use as supplied. Further thinning may be accomplished by adding small amounts of CMI thinner 112-19. Prior to use, be certain to mix well to resuspend fillers. Best properties, for most applications, result when cured for 3 to 5 minutes at 110°C. Excellent properties are also obtained on a variety of substrates by curing at temperatures ranging from 50°C to 175°C. End user is advised to experimentally determine temperature and time best suited for individual applications.
