Many EMI problems can be solved easily by the use of Amucor foil or tape, a commonly used material. Amucor foil and tape can be produced with or without (conductive) self-adhesive and an optional insulation layer.
Amucor tape can be cut to any width starting at 3 mm and can be delivered from stock. The most commonly used width is 25 mm; the standard roll length is 16.5 meters.
If coverage of large surfaces is needed, it is usually best to use tape with a conductive self-adhesive in combination with foil. This solution is much cheaper than only using tape.
Amucor foil can also be delivered as die-cut, according to the customer's drawing, on a strip or in pieces (stickers), with optional self-adhesive.
Applications
• EMI shielding of plastic enclosure parts (EMI/RFI-shielding tape/gasket)
• Shielding all non-conductive materials
• Ground plane
• Anti-static floor (ESD floor)
• The electrical connection between surfaces (sheets/foils)
• Die-cuts
• Shielding in housings and Faraday cages
• Temporary shielding during tests
• Mounting transparent foils, windows for EMI/RFI shielding
• Cable shielding (wrapped around the cable)
• Temporary shielding during emission and immunity tests
Options
• Fire-retardant version
• With (conductive) self-adhesive backing
• With insulation layer
• Die-cutting to any shape according to the CAD drawing
