TECAFORM AH ELS black
electrically active POM-C with carbon black filler, ESD
Acetal copolymer (POM-C) material modified by the addition of a special conductive carbon black is manufactured by Ensinger under the tradename TECAFORM AH ELS black. The addition of carbon black creates consistent electrical conductivity with a surface resistivity between 102 – 104 Ω/sq. Carbon black filled POM-C offers good chemical resistance, high strength and hardness, and a long-term temperature resistance up to 100 °C. In addition, carbon black filled POM-C has good UV and weather resistance. Having exceptional wear properties as well, makes this special acetal copolymer an ideal choice also for sliding applications.
TECAFORM AH ELS black is part of Ensinger’s portfolio for the semiconductor industry. This electrically conductive POM-C plastic is therefore an ideal choice for components used in semiconductor and electronics manufacturing that require mechanical stability at moderate temperatures while protecting electronic devices from damaging electrostatic discharge (ESD).
For applications requiring a slower rate of decay of static charge in a controlled manner, Ensinger offers TECAFORM AH SD natural with a surface resistivity in the anti-static range between 109 – 1011 Ω/sq. For applications requiring temperature resistance above 100 °C, Ensinger offers a conductive PEEK grade under the tradename TECAPEEK ELS nano black, with temperature resistance up to 260 °C.
As with all Ensinger semiconductor grade materials, we can confirm that TECAFORM AH ELS black meets the limitations imposed by RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU Restriction of Hazardous Substances in electrical equipment, and can also provide further conformity declarations on request.
