Stat-Tech™ TPE Static Dissipative & Electrically Conductive Thermoplastic Elastomers
Electrically Conductive Thermoplastic Elastomers
Stat-Tech™ TPEs are electrically conductive thermoplastic elastomers engineered to protect critical electronics from electrostatic discharge (ESD), and electromagnetic and radio frequency interference (EMI/RFI). They can offer the precise level of electrical conductivity required for your application and are available in a range of Shore hardness levels. Good electrical performance can be offered at a lower hardness compared to silicone or rubber alternatives.
Stat-Tech TPEs can be both injection molded and extruded, giving great design freedom and enabling more complex geometries. Compared to rubber and silicone alternatives, they simplify manufacturing with single-step fabrication, reducing the energy used in production, and can be overmolded directly onto a range of non-polar polymer substrates including PP and PE.
Depending on your application’s performance needs, we can develop custom Stat-Tech TPE grades to provide anti-static properties, dissipation, conduction, and EMI/RFI shielding. Stat-Tech TPEs are well positioned to perform in industrial applications such as conveyor belts and controls, ADAS systems, electronic devices.
