FOAM

Lossy Flexible Foam

The LS product is a flexible, low density, high loss, carbon impregnated open cell foam. It is available in a range of thicknesses with various carbon loading. The carbon loading allows it to be effective over a broad range of frequencies, typically providing 5 dB loss or greater. This product is halogen free, RoHS and REACH compliant.

Product Overview
The LS series is an open cell foam with carbon loading. It is available in sheet form, has low density, is light weight and can be custom carbon loaded to meet high or low loss requirements.

THERMOPLASTICS

Glocom blends thermoplastics with fillers to create customized solutions. Glocom can manufacture thermoplastics to be used in a cast, molded, extruded, or pellet form. In the binder Glocom can compound different fillers (typically: carbon, ferrite or iron particles) to achieve the desired absorption or conductivity to solve the problem.

By combining a binder into a form that meets the product requirements and with the proper electrical and/or magnetic conductive fillers, a complete solution can be found for every situation.

Why Thermoplastics are effective?
Thermoplastics, due to its’ moldable properties, is a very versatile tool for product designers. Parts can be molded to snap over the IC’s, or extruded to wrap and cover a product or cable, or sold as pellets so the end customercanmold/extrude their own product. The use of fillers allows Glocom to tune the end product for narrow or broadband applications. This product line is very flexible and versatile. Glocom can mold components for you, or extrude sheet and apply PSA (pressure sensitive adhesives) to it, or supply it in pellet form to an external molder.
