  • Good shielding-to-cost performance
  • Best colorability of the common shielding additives

ASTM D4935: Standard Test Method for Measuring the Electromagnetic Shielding Effectiveness of Planar Materials

This test method provides a procedure for measuring the electromagnetic (EM) shielding effectiveness (SE) of a material due to a plane-wave, far-field EM wave. The test utilizes a coaxial transmission line to determine the shielding effectiveness of a given material. The test method is valid for a frequency range of 30 MHz to 1.5 GHz. Various thicknesses and types of materials can be tested to acquire a relative ranking of shielding effectiveness.

Polyetherimide
Compounds

Advantages
• Continuous use temperature of 365 degrees F (180 degrees C)
• High strength
• Inherently flame retardant
• Dimensional stability

Limitations
• Cost
• Colorability

Polyetherimide (PEI) is a high performance engineering thermoplastic. PEI's characteristics include high strength and rigidity at elevated temperatures, long term heat resistance, and outstanding dimensional stability.

Like other amorphous, high temperature resins, PEI has outstanding dimensional stability and is inherently flame retardant. PEI exhibits good chemical resistance to many substances including hydrocarbons, alcohols and halogenated solvents.
