Technical Insights

Technical Insight library.

Start from an application or engineering task, then open the answer-first insight that matches the material, mechanism, failure mode, process, or validation constraint.

Conductive design that maintains the flexibility of TPE·TPU and the performance of ESD

Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotubes (MWCNT), Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes (SWCNT), Graphene Nanoplatelets (GNP), and Antimony Tin Oxide (ATO) are screening candidates. For a practical review of conductive additives for ESD TPE·TPU, it is not sufficient to compare only product names or supplier representative figures. First, the required functions of the final part or film, acceptable appearance and processing range, and actual test conditions must be defined. Then, candidate materials must be compared under the same base material, thickness, process, and conditioning conditions to obtain meaningful conclusions.
