3M 1170 3/4" X 4"-100

RFI and EMI shielding and absorbing materials are commonly used to protect electronics from interference from outside environmental sources. 3M 1170 3/4" X 4" -100 is one such product, designed to shield electrical circuits and components from environmental electromagnetic fields. This article will discuss the application field and working principle of 1170 3/4" X 4" -100.

3M 1170 3/4" X 4" -100 is designed for use in EMI/RFI shielding applications. The product can be applied to conductive materials to provide effective shielding. It is often used to protect cell phone towers, satellite communications components, military/aerospace electronics, television receivers and audio systems, and industrial and medical equipment.

3M 1170 3/4" X 4" -100 is made with 3M\'s patented Electromagnetic Absorber Technology (EAT), which is a multi-part, high-performance material consisting of two conductive layers and a damping layer. The conductive layers are aluminum foil with a surface resistivity of less than 5 OHMs/sq. The damping layer consists of highly-elastic and electrically-conductive rubber. It is designed to absorb and dissipate electrical interference.

When applied in an EMI/RFI shield, 3M 1170 3/4" X 4" -100 creates a Faraday cage which blocks electromagnetic interference from entering the enclosed space. The Faraday cage works by reflecting incoming electromagnetic energy so that it does not reach the sensitive components. This shielding is effective over a wide range of frequencies, and can be used for both shielding and absorption applications.

3M 1170 3/4" X 4" -100 is also designed to resist environmental conditions such as high and low temperatures, humidity, corrosion, vibration, and mechanical shock. It is also resistant to most chemicals, and is UL recognized for flame spread and surface spread of flame.

When used in an EMI/RFI shield, 3M 1170 3/4" X 4" -100 should be overlapped and taped along the edges for best performance. It should also be grounded to ensure that the shield is fully effective. This product should be used with other shielding materials such as bondable absorber pads or board-level shielding for maximum protection.

In conclusion, 3M 1170 3/4" X 4" -100 is a versatile EMI/RFI shielding material that is designed for use in a variety of applications. It is effectively used to protect against electromagnetic interference, and is also flame retardant and resistant to environmental conditions. This product should be used with other shielding materials to ensure maximum performance.
