Radio frequency interference (RFI) and electromagnetic interference (EMI) represent two of the most challenging electromagnetic characteristics offered by contact materials today. In particular, RFI and EMI is often referred to as “contact noise” and is generated when two or more electronic components interact. This can occur when two conductive surfaces come into contact, when a contact point is exposed to an intense electrical field, or when two materials with different dielectric properties come in contact with each other.

0097011002 is a specific contact material which is designed to control and reduce RFI and EMI, known as “fingerstock” and “gaskets”. Fingerstock and gaskets are made from 0097011002, which is composed of a dielectric material such as polyester, mica epoxy, polycarbonate or nylon. 0097011002 offers excellent dielectric characteristics which provide unmatched EMI shielding performance along with superior mechanical strength.

Fingerstock forms a conductive interface between two electrical components which is designed to absorb high-frequency EMI and RFI signals. By having two conductive plates (one attached to the device and the other to the contact point) electrons continuously flow from one plate to the other. This results in a quenching action, which effectively absorbs high-frequency signals. The contact impedance of 0097011002 is also lower than conventional contact materials, which results in reduced contact noise. Additionally, fingerstock can also be used to control high-frequency current surges, providing superior protection from ESD events.

Gaskets are designed to provide a gap between two components which creates a Faraday cage effect. This effect is generated when a wave train containing EMI or RFI is applied to the enclosure, with the wave train bouncing off the walls of the enclosure and canceling out. In addition to RFI and EMI, gaskets are also capable of blocking out dust, moisture, and other environmental contaminants. Gaskets are often made of 0097011002 to provide higher levels of shielding effectiveness and reduce the risk of connection failure.

0097011002 has the capability to significantly reduce contact noise by taking advantage of its superior dielectric properties which provide excellent EMI shielding performance. Fingerstock provides an efficient quenching action which is capable of absorbing high-frequency signals, while gaskets can create a Faraday cage effect which blocks out EMI and RFI signals. By combining both elements, 0097011002 can be an effective component to reduce contact noise while also providing superior mechanical strength to ensure reliable connection.
