RFI and EMI - Shielding and Absorbing Materials
5-AB5020-1 is a room-temperature cure shielding/absorbing material. This material is often considered as a state of the art performance product, suitable for a wide range of radio frequency interference (RFI) and electro-magnetic interference (EMI) control applications. The material is a solid commercial flexible elastomeric sheet with integrated conductive particles.
Applications of 5-AB5020-1
5-AB5020-1 is suitable for a number of industrial applications. Some of the common applications include the RFI and EMI shielding of enclosures, sealing of electrical and electronic components, anti-static grounding and bonding of electrical and electronic components, gasketing of RF tight barriers, and RFI and EMI shielding in instrumentation and military shelters. In addition, the material is also used as a vibration damping material for electrical and electronic devices, to improve the electrical and structural performance of enclosures, and as an acoustic insulating material.
Working Principle of 5-AB5020-1
5-AB5020-1 has a unique combination of shielding and absorbing functionality. Its conductive particles provide an effective and reliable electrical shielding, while to provide maximum EMI shielding performance, the material also has an integrated absorbing functionality. This results in a product with excellent shielding and absorbing performance for both RFI and EMI. When used in an application, the material helps to reduce EMI/RFI noise emission and to minimize the amount of stray EMI/RFI signals entering the equipment.
