What is Etoma™
Electrically conductive compounds based on multiple polymers with vary surface resistivity. Main applications include antistatic, ESD protection, controlling explosive atmospheres (ATEX), electromagnetic shielding and sensors.
Semiconductor Industry
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) / electrical overstress (EOS) has been a predominant failure mechanism across all products in semiconductor industry. Etoma provides conductive or antistatic property in thermoplastic compounds which protect from ESD.
Low ion content and dimensional stability are important issues to semiconductor manufacturing. Etoma has specialized grades designed to FOUP (Front Opening Unified Pod), IC trays, carrier tapes.
| Grade | Base Polymer | Application |
|---|---|---|
| ET2102 | PS | ESD |
| ET4202 | PC | ESD |
| ET4212 | PC | ESD |
| ET7101 | PPE | ESD |
Consumer Electronics
Static electricity will cause abnormal operation of many electronic products, paper jam, noise interference, dust. Using conductive compounds to make mechanical parts can eliminate static electricity and avoid malfunctions.
Etoma offers not only stable conductivity but excellent mechanical properties to satisfy electronic parts.

Storage and Logistics
Conductive holders and containers are necessary to store and ship sensitive electronics. In addition to stable conductivity, excellent mechanical strength is also required to ensure that the product will not be damaged during transportation.
| Grade | Base Polymer | Application |
|---|---|---|
| ET1101 | PP | ESD |
| ET1114 | PP | ESD |
| ET3201 | PE | ESD |
| ET8201 | TPU | ESD |
Laboratory Supplies
Certain laboratory supplies require thin-wall injection and still maintaining very stable conductivity. High hydrophobicity and low surface tension can prevent the product from contamination and affecting the test results.
