Electromagnetic Shielding and Static Protection
Technology Overview
Union VoltCon conductive coatings transform traditionally insulating surfaces into conductive pathways, providing essential protection for electronic components and sensitive equipment. Our specialized formulations address both electromagnetic interference and electrostatic discharge challenges across multiple industries.
Key Performance Features
Electromagnetic Shielding (EMI/RFI)
Union VoltCon Conductive (C) formulations create effective barriers against electromagnetic and radio frequency interference, shielding sensitive electronic components from both internal and external interference. This protection is critical for electronic enclosures, medical devices, and telecommunications equipment where signal integrity is paramount.
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Protection
Union VoltCon Antistatic (S) coatings provide reliable static charge dissipation, preventing damage to sensitive electronic components during handling, storage, and operation. The controlled surface resistivity ensures gradual discharge rather than sudden sparking, protecting valuable electronics in manufacturing and service environments.
Substrate Versatility
Unlike conventional conductive treatments, Union VoltCon can transform insulating materials like glass, SMC composites, and MDF into conductive surfaces. This unique capability enables EMI shielding and ESD protection on materials previously unsuitable for electronic applications.
Multiple Chemistry Options
Available in polyester, epoxy, hybrid, and polyurethane formulations, Union VoltCon provides flexibility in selecting the optimal base chemistry for specific application requirements while maintaining consistent conductive performance across different binder systems.
