The MG Chemicals 838-340g is an economical, acrylic paint that is used to create conductive, static free surfaces with excellent characteristics.

Coated surfaces reduce electromagnetic or radio frequency interference (EMI/RFI). The carbon in the coat resists rubbing off to the touch. Further, the cured coat is designed to withstand large temperature changes without cracking.

• High Conductivity—Low Surface resistivity of 250 Ω/sq for one coat (1 mil)
• Tough and durable coating
• Carbon does not rub off
• Stronger adhesion than water based coatings
• Low VOC’s

Applications & Usages:

Its primary application is to ground working surfaces to avoid static, but it can also be used to provide low cost EMI/RFI shielding, as a conductive base for some electroplating process, or anywhere in a manufacturing process where it is necessary to impart conductivity to a surface.

Compatibility:

Adhesion—The 838 coating adheres to most materials found on printed circuit assemblies; however, it is not compatible with contaminants like water, oil, and greasy flux residues that may affect adhesion. If contamination is present, clean the surface to be coated first.
