Hello all, I have been watching this discussion with interest and the phrase "environmentally friendly" keeps cropping up. Can any one tell me of any EU or indeed world standards that pertain to the recycling on plastic parts that have been coated for EMC purposes?

Michael, Just as I received your e-mail, I received a direct mail from Acheson Colloids Company. (1-800-255-1908). They can set you up with what they have for conductive coatings. I don't know how enviromentally friendly they are, though.

I have been monitoring this forum for some time and would like to take this opportunity to ask a question concerning coatings or platings for steel, aluminum and plastic. Does anyone know of any studies that may have been performed comparing various coatings on the three mentioned substrates that considers cost, conductivity and/or shielding effectiveness. Apparently some of the tried and true materials are coming under attack for environmental friendliness and suitable alternatives must be identified. I am aware of the use of zinc chromates, electroless nickel and copper as well as various paints. Any experiences out there with practicality, durability, cost and environmental friendliness. Thanks in advance for your comments. -Regards, ------------------------------------------------ | M.J.
