Description:

Velostat also known under the name of Linqstat, carbostat or Teleteldos, this material is a polymer sheet of polyethylene impregnated with carbon black and with volume conductivity making it electrically sensitive to pressure.

It is an essential accessory for making your own pressure sensors or e-textile presence and position detectors.

To be used in sandwich between 2 sheets of aluminum or conductive fabrics. The resistance (ohm) decreases towards zero as a function of the pressure force.

Since this plastic film is pressure sensitive and electrically conductive, you only need to press on it to reduce its resistance. It is also much more economical than most other pressure sensors.

Can be used very easily with an arduino board.

Also for use as an electrostatic discharge pouch packaging film to make anti-static protective bags, and packaging cases for circuit products containing static-sensitive electronic chip cards. ESD protection. EMI / RF shielding. Conductive bags meet the electrical requirements of military specification MIL-P-82646A.

 

Product history sheet:

Velostat was developed by Custom Materials, which is now part of 3M.

It is used for the protection of objects or devices susceptible to being damaged by electrostatic discharges by the creation of a Faraday cage.

Commonly used as a static control material in many semiconductor, electronics, and smart card applications due to its easy grounding nature. Examples of these applications include electrically conductive bags of protective sleeves for static-sensitive components, grounding mats or as spacers between rolls of smart card modules.

Since it does not hold a static charge when grounded, VELOSTAT / LINQSTAT is commonly used as a waste container drum liner to contain explosive chemicals that could be ignited by an original spark. static or dry chemicals, which tend to cling to regular, non-conductive, statically charged plastics.

The film and its conductivity are unaffected by humidity and age. The film is heat-sealable, flexible and offers exceptional abrasion resistance. The film offers good thermal stability and exceptional chemical resistance.

 

Main advantages and applications:

• electrically conductive

• Heat-weldable

• Resistivity: <500 ohm-cm

 

 

Depending on the sales format, the sheet can be folded to facilitate shipping, so some creases may appear and the sheet will have to be placed flat under a book or other to reduce hard creases.
