发明名称 Foaming agent to improve EMI shielding
摘要 A conductive plastic article (31) is disclosed suited for a housing that offers improved shielding against electromagnetic interference or that offers improved electrostatic discharge properties. The plastic article is made by means of low pressure injection molding. The article (31) comprises at least 0.25 volume percent of electrically conductive additives (38). The article (31) comprises a cellular structure. The cellular structure is created by the use of a blowing or foaming agent. At least 0.25 weight percent of blowing or foaming agent is used in the production of the conductive plastic article (31).
