Colloidal graphite spray

7 April 2004 Manufacturing / Production Technology, Hardware & Services Information Security

Colloidal graphite-based spray can make surfaces conductive. Due-Ci's N-77 leaves a thin silver-grey film that adheres to plastic, metal, wood, glass, ceramics. It can be used to coat the housings of measuring instruments or delicate electronics and totally eliminates dangerous electrostatic build-up that often causes damage or malfunction.

It can also be used to restore potentiometers, cathode ray tubes of TV and computer monitors. The graphite film is an excellent dry lubricant and is resistant to very high temperatures.
