RTU Ink E

RTU Ink E is a waterborne, low V.O.C., electrically conductive ink and coating suitable for application by rotogravure or flexographic. This product features adhesion to Kapton, Mylar, glass, and a variety of other surfaces. Unlike conventional conductive materials, this product is very resistant to flexing and creasing. Some applications for RTU Ink E include, but are not limited to, medical electrodes, EMI/RFI shielding, polymer thick film circuitry and membrane switches. RTU Ink E is a higher viscosity version of 119-32.Features Water based conductive ink

Suggested Handling & Curing

Before using mix well to re-suspend filler. Further thinning may be accomplished by adding small amounts of distilled water. Best properties are obtained on a variety of substrates by curing for 10 minutes at 125°C. Good properties are also obtained on a variety of substrates by curing at temperatures ranging from 50°C to 150°C.End user is advised to experimentally determine temperature and time best suited for individual applications.

Shelf Life

6 months at 21°C. Do Not Allow To Freeze.
