These electrically conductive spray paints for plastic are mostly used as shielding spray paint to prevent electromagnetic interference from penetrating electronics enclosures. They are also used as electroplating spray paint to provide a conductive undercoat in plating applications, as a grounding spray, and to create ESD-safe surfaces. Aerosol packaging allows low volume users to achieve professional quality results without resorting to expensive spray equipment and is convenient for field repairs.
These conductive paints consist of a solvent-based acrylic binder pigmented with either carbon, nickel, silver-coated copper, silver, or ESD-safe pigments. Our acrylic system is flexible, smooth, and durable. It is easy to use and dries quickly at room temperature. The choice of pigments affects the price and performance of the product. As one moves from carbon to nickel to silver-coated copper to silver, both the price and quality of performance increase. All pigments except silver-coated copper display exceptional corrosion resistance.
These products are also available in liquid and conductive pen formats. If you are looking for a non-conductive protective spray coating, check out our conformal coatings.
