Stat-Tech™ TPE Static Dissipative & Electrically
Conductive Thermoplastic Elastomers
Stat-Tech™ TPEs are electrically conductive
thermoplastic elastomers engineered to protect
critical electronics from electrostatic discharge
(ESD), and electromagnetic and radio frequency
interference (EMI/RFI).
They can offer the precise
level of electrical conductivity required for your
application and are available in a range of Shore
hardness levels.
Depending on your application’s performance
needs, we can develop custom Stat-Tech
TPE grades to provide anti-static properties,
dissipation, conduction and EMI/RFI shielding.
