Nickel Acrylic Paints Provide Cost Effective EMI Shielding

Wednesday, September 2nd, 2009

TBA Electro Conductive Products (ECP) now offers nickel acrylic paints in its ECP 500 series surface coatings to provide a cost effective solution for EMI shielding problems in a wide range of applications.

Surface coatings offer the simplest and most economical solutions for many shielding and static control problems and can be applied with minimal training and equipment requirements using conventional paint spray techniques. ECP 502/552 nickel acrylic coatings deliver excellent attenuation and can be supplied in bulk for use with standard spray painting equipment or in aerosols for low volume or prototype production runs.

Besides the paints themselves, TBA ECP also offers a range of services including coating of free issue parts and custom moulding and finishing of parts. ECP 502/552 nickel acrylic paints are part of TBA ECP’s 500 series of coatings that has been developed to provide EMI shielding and to protect sensitive electrical and electronic equipment from the effects of electro static discharge (ESD).

TBA ECP’s extensive range of static control products includes flooring, packaging and storage systems, grounding products, work surfaces and workstations, instrumentation, coatings and complementary services such as quality audits. The company is capable of delivering floor-to-ceiling static control solutions encompassing everything required in ESD protection areas. All products supplied by TBA ECP comply with RoHS Directive 2002/95/EC.

The directive bans the use of certain substances in new products from July 2006, specifically Lead, Mercury, Cadmium, Hexavalent Chromium, polybrominated biphenyls (PBB) and polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDE).

TBA ECP’s extensive range of BeCu gaskets contains none of the banned substances and fully meets RoHS directive requirements.

TBA ECP’s beryllium copper fingerstock is available in a wide range of styles including clip-on, stick-on, snap-on, hook-on and special mounting types plus low profile and connectors gaskets all delivering high shielding effectiveness. A wide range of plating options is available including clean and bright, gold, silver, bright tin, bright nickel, zinc/clear chromate and electroless nickel among others.

Beryllium copper shielding strips offer excellent spring qualities and long life. Other important characteristics include low closing forces and high attenuation exceeding 100dB for many styles.

Complementing its range of beryllium copper shielding strips, TBA ECP also supplies stainless steel versions of its low-profile and pressure sensitive mounting gaskets. These extend the choice of materials available to design engineers and provide hard-wearing and long-lasting EMI/RFI shielding in a wide range of applications.
