Specifications and procedures subject to change without notice.
Description:
Desco’s conductive foam is a non-abrasive, open-cell(closed cell in cross linked)
polyurethane foam compounded for permanent ESD Control Properties. The
black conductive foam’s Rtt range of 10E3 to 10E6 allows it to be used with ESD
susceptible products. Desco’s conductive foam is available in 3 designs:
Electrical Properties:
Surface Resistance:
1 x 10E3 < 1 x 10E6 ohms per ANSI/ESD STM11.11
Volume Resistance:
1 x 10E3 < 1 x 10E6 ohms per ANSI/ESD STM11.12
Charge Decay:
Less than 0.05 seconds from 5KV per FTMS 101C, Method 4046.1
Specifications:
Construction:
Hi / Low Density -- Polyurethane open cell, carbon/acrylic impregnated.
Cross Linked -- Polyethylene closed cell extruded cross linked.
Corrosion Resistance: per MIL-STD 883C, Method 1004.2
