Nickel Coated FibersConductive Composites has developed a proprietary Chemical Vapor Deposition
(CVD) coating process where fibers are coated with a very thin, robust, and ductile
film of pure nickel. Nickel coated fibers present an ultimate combination of low
density, high strength, toughness, and high conductivity. Our process produces a
conductive fiber with superior handling properties, excellent conductivity/shielding
capabilities and are available in tow, braid, cloth, and converted formats. Our CVD
technology allows a wide range of fiber types to be coated including cellulose, silk,
cotton, jute and even carbon nano materials to name a few.
Carbon FibersCarbon fibers are widely used in commercial and defense
application for their strength and weight properties, and our nickel
coating process adds electrical and shielding performance and
deliver a multifunctional materials system. Available in multiple
tow count and modulus levels, our coated fibers provide a number
of unique properties that can only be obtained through our
proven process.
Aramid FibersNickel coated aramid fibers are high strength, heat-resistant
synthetic fibers which present an ultimate combination of low
density, high strength, toughness, and high conductivity.
CutFiber (chopped & sized staple)Our chopped/sized conductive fiber staple is available with a
wide range of nickel coating levels and sizing chemistries in
lengths from 6mm to 24mm. The superior properties of our
CutFiber makes it a perfect high performance structural and
conductive additive for thermosets & thermoplastics and is also
used in conductive nonwovens.
Precision Converted Fiber (PCF)Our precision converted nickel coated fiber is a highly uniform
short fiber format in length from 2mm to 100µm. Our PCF provides
our customers and partners with a high-performance structural
and conductive additive that is both lighter and longer than typical
nickel coated graphite formats. With a wide range of available
nickel coating levels and sizing chemistries, our easily
dispersable, high uniformity conductive short fiber format is
perfectly suited for conductive gaskets, elastomers, sealants,
adhesives and paints.
