On the leading edge of technology, Cabot continuously invests in R&D and in product support & development. Novel processing and applications development in the field of conductivity plastic resins and analytical test equipment in state of the art laboratories contribute to meeting and anticipate our customers’ needs, often in close cooperation with customers, suppliers and universities.

Static electricity is a natural phenomenon, one that can lead to disaster if left to build up on fuel pump hoses, polyethylene bags, or tools used in confined spaces, such as mines or tunnels. One spark can be devastating. Cabot's full range of CABELEC^آ® conductive compounds greatly reduces this risk.

Although natural thermoplastic resins typically act as electrical insulators, their electrostatic discharge (ESD) compounds are carefully designed to transform these electrical characteristics from insulating to conductive.

CABELEC^آ® compounds are formulated by combining conductive carbon black and thermoplastic resins. These compounds meet the needs of many industries where permanent reduction of electrostatic hazards is required.

The conductive properties of CABELEC^آ® compounds are permanent and are an integral part of the material's performance. They fulfil specific requirements related to their electrical, rheological and mechanical properties.
