Creative Materials 127-38

127-38 is a one component, electrically conductive, solvent-resistant ink and coating designed for screen-printing and syringe dispensing. This product features a high degree of flexibility and excellent adhesion to Kapton®, Mylar®, glass, polycarbonate ITO coated substrates as well as a variety of other substrates. 127-38 has the unique ability to adhere well to difficult to stick to surfaces such as silicone hardcoated acrylic and polycarbonate. Unlike many conductive inks 127-38 is resistant to harsh solvents such as MEK, high humidity environments including boiling water, and is resistant to aging and UV exposure.

    Suggested Handling & Curing

    Material is ready to use as received. Be sure to resuspend silver by remixing. Further thinning may be accomplished by mixing in small amounts of 102-03. Remove product from freezer and allow to thaw to room temperature before opening container. Good results can be achieved at a variety of cure temperatures and cure times such as those listed below. 127-38 is not recommended for applications that cannot cure above 125°C. End user is advised to experiment and determine the best cure schedule for their application.
