Creative Materials 127-11

127-11 is a medical electrode ink and coating suitable for application by wire coating, dipping and flexographic or gravure printing. This product features excellent adhesion to Kapton, Mylar, glass and a variety of other surfaces. Unlike most readily available electrode inks, this product is able to maintain conductivity levels in contact with high salt content electrode adhesive gel. This product is designed to produce uniform smooth surfaces in thin layers and to be fast curing at low temperatures. Some uses for 127-11 include, but are not limited to, EKG and Tens electrode applications as well as other medical devices.

Suggested Handling & Curing

127-11 is ready to use as supplied. Be sure to resuspend filler before use. Dilution or modification of drying rate may be accomplished by adding small amounts of Methyl Ethyl Ketone (fast drying) or Methyl Isobutyl Ketone (slow drying). Good properties, for most applications, result when cured for less than 1 minute at 75°C. Best properties are obtained by curing at temperatures greater than 100°C. End user is advised to experimentally determine temperature and time best suited for individual applications. Ensure containers are stored in light-block or opaque containers. Never store in clear or metal containers. Avoid direct exposure to sunlight, UV light, and heat sources as silver chloride can discolor or agglomerate. Avoid using metal scrapers, spatulas, and tools as the silver chloride can react and potentially damage any metallic equipment. Plastic, wood, or glass are recommended. Silver chloride inks are safe to use on high grade stainless steel, nickel, and polymer screens, plates, clichés, and other equipment but care should be taken to avoid exposure to other metal surfaces.
