Product Description
CAPLINQ LINQSTAT VCF-Series is a black, carbon-filled, volume-conductive polyethylene film designed to provide both physical and static protection. Having a surface resistance of 100,000 ohms per square (10E5 ?/square) it offers medium-level static protection which means it effectively avoids accumulation of electric charge on itself and the products which it protects. Its easy-grounding nature makes it ideal for packaging where electrostatic contamination is a problem.
CAPLINQ LINQSTAT VCF-Series is useful in applications where the key is to balance cost versus performance. As a medium-level conductive plastic, the carbon-loading is such that it is low-enough to be cost-effective, while being high enough to meet the electrical requirements of military specification MIL-PRF-81705D Type II and MIL-P-82646A.
CAPLINQ LINQSTAT VCF-Series film and its conductivity are unaffected by humidity and age. The film is heat-sealable, flexible and offers exceptional abrasion resistance. The film gives good thermal stability and has outstanding chemical resistance. It has a standard thickness range from 65 micron to 200 micron (0.0025 in. to 0.008 in.) and is available in sheeting, tubing, V-fold and C-fold versions. Roll lengths and widths vary depending on thickness and application.
Applications for Conductive Plastic in Bag Form
In bag form (LINQSTAT VCF-B Series), the conductive plastic is used to pack static-sensitive components. For this purpose, the bags are supplied in small sizes in boxes of 100 bags per box. Because of its antistatic properties, it is also used in the ordnance industry in larger bag sizes.
