alucoat365

alucoat365 is a wet-laid nonwoven material made from aluminum-coated Alucoat® glass or basalt fibers combined with a low-content organic binder system (<10%). The aluminum coating provides metal-like electrical and thermal conductivity, while the mineral fiber substrate ensures high stiffness and tensile strength — making it suitable for EMI shielding and electrostatic discharge (ESD) applications.

Depending on areal weight and construction, alucoat365 achieves shielding effectiveness of up to approximately 20 dB for a single material layer, measured as an average across 0–2700 MHz. Multiple layers can be stacked to increase shielding performance. The 100 gsm variant achieves approximately 18–20 dB in this frequency range.

alucoat365 is based on more than 90% aluminum-coated mineral fibers — specifically Alucoat® glass or basalt fibers — combined with a low-content organic binder system (PVA or acrylate). The aluminum coating is the key functional element, providing the continuous conductive network throughout the material.

Standard areal weights are 35, 80, 100, and 150 g/m² with corresponding thicknesses of approximately 0.35, 0.78, 1.00, and 1.17 mm at 0.1 kPa. All standard variants are supplied at 600 mm (24") width on 76 mm cardboard cores or as sheets. Other areal weights or fiber-binder combinations are available on request.

Yes. The wet-laid manufacturing process ensures that alucoat365 remains porous, allowing gases, liquids, and resin to pass through the material. The material is also highly flexible and suitable for 3D molding processes — it can be shaped to fit complex forms without losing its functional conductive properties.

Yes. Fiber length (6 mm or 12 mm), areal weight, thickness, binder system, and sheet structure can all be tailored to application-specific requirements.
