CABELEC^®compounds are carefully formulated products made from conductive carbon black and thermoplastic resins. A variety of CABELEC compounds are available for different processing techniques, such as: 

• injection moulding
• blown film extrusion
• sheet
• pipe
• tube
• fiber extrusion
• blow moulding 

The properties of the semi-finished product (or final article), especially conductivity, depend on the processing conditions. In fact, conductive carbon black-filled compounds are highly shear sensitive. To learn more about the general processing guidelines for different CABELEC compounds, click on the attachment below.
