EMI Shielding And Conductive Silicones: Elasto Proxy Announces Custom Gaskets For Military And Defense Industry (CANSEC Booth #935)

Elasto Proxy announces article and video about electrically conductive silicones for EMI shielding. Visit Elasto Proxy in CANSEC Booth #935 and learn more about custom gaskets for military and defense.

Boisbriand, Quebec, Canada (PRWEB) - Elasto Proxy, custom-fabricator of industrial rubber products and plastic parts, is announcing help for military buyers who need EMI shielding. As Elasto Proxy explains in an on-line article and video, EMI gaskets made of particle-filled silicones combine the advantages of silicone rubber with the electrical properties of metals.

EMI Gaskets for Military and Defense
Silicone rubber is a synthetic elastomer with useful physical and chemical properties over a wide range of temperatures. By filling specialty silicones with metal-coated particles, compounders create materials that conduct electricity and resist electromagnetic interference (EMI). Elasto Proxy recommends particle-filled silicones, and then creates custom EMI gaskets for military buyers and the defense industry.

As Elasto Proxy’s new article explains, some product designers worry that particle-filled elastomers are too hard, too prone to tearing, too expensive, and unable to meet performance requirements. Elasto Proxy’s article offers evidence to refute each claim, and explains that nickel-coated graphite silicones have the performance levels of silver-coated products and can meet MIL-DTL-83528 requirements.
