Product Description
 
PCP-CL101-IC is a single part screen printable carbon paste for general electronic application use. The paste should be cured at low temperature (140˚C) to achieve a sheet resistance of 10 Ω/ □ /mil.
 
Product Benefits
 
  • Good printability
  • Low temperature curing 
  • Good screen residence time
  • Compatibility with low temperature substrates such as PET

Paste Preparation
 
The paste is a single part system. Gently stir before use. Avoid rapid stirring to prevent air entrapment during the stirring process. Once the paste has been removed from the container for printing, this may introduce contamination. Please do not replace the paste in the original container.
