描述
ULTEM Resin JD7904 is a conductive, carbon powder filled polyetherimide (PEI) resin manufactured by SABIC. As an authorized distributor and trader, we supply genuine SABIC materials with full traceability. For more product options and company information, please visit our website at https://szrqchem.com/.
ULTEM JD7904 is a non-reinforced, electrically conductive PEI resin formulated with conductive carbon powder to provide anti-static and anti-dusting properties. Unlike JD7903 which contains 10% glass fiber reinforcement, JD7904 is non-reinforced, offering a different balance of properties for applications where glass fiber is not required.
Key attributes include:
