Applications The AB-5000 Series EMI Absorber is typically used for applications requiring electromagneticabsorbing performance. It suppresses radiated 3M AB-5000 EMI Absorber 1. 2. 3. 4. noise from electrical devices for broadband radio frequency range. Common uses include mobile phone (SAR reduction), computer, digital still camera, RF block, military equipments for radar avoidance and stealth performance. Attenuation and Power Loss Many factors determine the true attenuation of an electromagnetic absorbing material, including shape and thickness, intimacy of substrate contact, smoothness of application surface, strength and frequency of the EMI signal, etc. However, using standard tests and fixtures, it is possible to determine a value for the signal attenuation. The typical attenuation range of the 3M AB-5000 Series EMI Absorber depends on thickness. – Typical Properties Properties Typical Value Type of Backing Type of Adhesive Product Number Thickness 1 Standard packaging Temperature range Surface resistivity 2 Thermal conductivity Tensile strength 3 Attenuation (S11 Reflection Loss) and Power Loss4 Polymer resin with metal flake filler Acrylic non-conductive pressure-sensitive adhesive (PSA) AB-5010 AB-5020 AB-5030 AB-5050 0.10mm 0.20mm 0.30mm 0.50mm 210mm x 297mm AB-5100 1.00mm -25 ~ 85℃ 1x10 6Ω(min) 0.7 W/mK 6.0MPa(min) Refer to attenuation and power loss graphs This value does not contain a double-side adhesive tape thickness.
