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.

Known for offering tight seals and reducing
vibration and noise, certain thermoplastic elastomers
(TPEs), like OnFlex™ grades, may be better suited
for your particular application than the historically
incumbent materials, like general purpose TPEs,
thermoplastic vulcanizates (TPV), and thermoplastic
polyolefins (TPO).
