High-Performance Polymer Solutions for In Vitro Diagnosis (IVD) and Labware Applications, including laser welding and laser marking, customized colorants and functional additives, low retention additives, nucleating/clarifying agents, conductive black formulations, engineered polymers, and thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs.) 

Properties that can be achieved with these materials include transparency, even for formulations based on polysulfone, electrical and/or thermal conductivity, laser marking, and X-ray opacity.

For parts needing added distinction, special colorants allow laser marking of fluoropolymers, or specialized inks can be used for striping and printing.    

Functional additives — to enhance the performance and reliability of drug delivery devices and in vitro diagnostics by promoting low retention, low friction, conductivity, sterilization stability, ultraviolet (UV) stability, solvent-free laser marking, and more

The Silcosperse EC series is based on varying technologies, ranging from single wall carbon nano tubes (SWCNT) and multi-wall carbon nano tubes (MWCNT), to conventional grades of conductive carbon black (CB) in higher dosing percentages. CB is also available as a European food regulation compliant grade. 0 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 1.00E+18 1.00E+16 1.00E+14 1.00E+12 1.00E+10 1.00E+08 1.00E+06 1.00E+04 1.00E+02 1.00E+00 INSULATIVE ANTISTAT DISSIPATIVE CONDUCTIVE KEY CHARACTERISTICS • Delivers a range of properties from anti-static through conductive • Achieves greater conductivity levels with lower loadings in single- and multi-wall nanotubes • Anti-static performance available at lower doses • Dark color options, such as browns, blues or reds, available at lower dosages in single-wall nanotubes • Suitable for peroxide- or platinum-cured silicone formulations MARKETS AND APPLICATIONS Silcosperse EC Electrically Conductive additive dispersions are found in a variety of markets, including transportation, energy, electrical & electronics, and the films & coatings industry.
