LIONPASTE Electro-Conductive Paste

What is the electro-conductive paste “LIONPASTE?”

LIONPASTE is a liquefied form of "KETJENBLACK" high-performance, high-quality carbon black. LIONPASTE is used as an electro-conductive material in such fields as paints/inks, batteries, construction materials and EMI devices.

Application examples

LIONPASTE is added to various types of plastic, rubber, paint, coating agents and adhesives as an electro-conductive agent. Examples include:

  • Packing material: Applied to paper and plastic to prevent static electricity buildup
  • Carpet backing: Provides effective grounding
  • Sealing material against electromagnetic waves: Makes urethane foam electro-conductive, allowing it to absorb electromagnetic wave

*Test conditions: LIONPASTE/Binder (N.V.48.0%)/water=20/20/60, coating amount 23g/m2
