Technical Data | October 2015 3MTM EMI Absorber AB7000HF Series (Halogen Free) Product Description 3MTM EMI Absorber AB7000HF Series (Halogen Free)* consists of flexible soft metal flakes filler loaded polymer resin and acrylic pressure sensitive adhesive. 3M absorber AB7000HF series includes product numbers AB7003HF, AB7005HF, AB7010HF, AB7020HF, AB7030HF and AB7050HF, which are available in sheet form. Features and Benefits * High permeability magnetic film * Acrylic pressure sensitive adhesive * Supplied on a removable liner for easy handling and die-cutting Applications 3M absorber AB7000HF series are an excellent choice for reducing EMI noise within electronic equipment, cable or circuit (including any portion covered by a shielded can) or reducing EMI susceptibility of any sensitive components (RFID or Hall device). They have been used to reduce conducted emissions from multi-conductor cables. 3M absorber AB7000HF series are particularly well suited for preventing EMI from internal sources around digital display devices such as mobile handhelds (MHH), digital still cameras (DSC), notebook computers, camcorders, hard disk drives (HDD), automotive electronics, cable harnesses, etc. Attenuation and Power Loss Many factors determine the true attenuation of an electromagnetic absorbing material, including shape and thickness, intimacy of substrate contact, smoothness of application surface, strength and frequency of the EMI signal, etc. However, using standard tests and fixtures, it is possible to determine a value for the signal attenuation. 3M absorber AB7000HF series' typical attenuation range is dependent on thickness. * Halogen Free is defined as having maximum 900 ppm bromine, maximum 900 ppm chlorine, and/or maximum 1500 ppm total bromine and chlorine, per IEC 61249-2-21. 3MTM EMI Absorber AB7000HF Series (Halogen Free) Typical Properties Note: The following technical information, test methods and data should be considered representative or typical only and should not be used for specification purposes.
