CF700

conductive Foam

Laird’s Ecofoam™ CF700 offers an innovative approach to traditional shielding and grounding by providing X, Y and Z-axis conductivity, enhancing the shielding effectiveness required to meet the increasing microprocessor speeds of today’s computer, telecommunications and other electronic equipment. The product is offered with a conductive PSA tape on one side. Ecofoam™ can be customized to your application by die-cutting, hole-punching, notching, and so on and is especially useful for odd-shaped applications which are difficult to shield with typical profile gaskets. Ecofoam™ is designed for low-cycling applications such as input/output (I/O) shielding and other non-shear standard connectors.

Features and Benefits

  • Excellent z-axis conductivity to provide good EMI shielding and grounding
  • Low compression forces allow for use of lighter materials
  • UL 94V0 flammability rating
  • RoHS compliant and halogen free per IEC-61249-2-21 standard
  • The recommended operating compression for EcoFoam EMI gaskets will vary depending on the size of the gasket. Typically recommend to compress25% to 50% of the original height
  • Z Axis Resistance Range:  < 0.2
