March 17, 2011 Interference Technology Markets, Military, Products, Shielding, Technologies

Nickel-plated graphite-filled EPDM elastomer EMI gasket materials from Parker Chomerics are material formulations developed for military systems requiring decontamination with Super Tropical Bleach (STB) after exposure to nuclear, biological and chemical (NBC) environments. CHO-SEAL^® 6452 gasket materials feature a low compression set of 30% and low moisture permeability, leading to lower total cost of ownership by reducing the incidence of field repairs and maintenance. CHO-SEAL^® 6452 gasket materials exhibit a low shore A hardness of 72 with the ability to extrude in many cross sections including hollow O, D and omega profiles that offer greater design flexibility and performance than other conductive EPDM materials.Read more from Chomerics.
