Eccosorb BSR / MFS High Loss, Magnetically Loaded, Elastomeric Microwave Absorber HIGH-LOSS ELASTOMERIC ABSORBER Eccosorb BSR / MFS is a thin, flexible, high-loss, electrically non-conductive silicone absorber. It is designed for the frequency range from 1 GHz to mm wave. It has low outgassing properties and high temperature resistance. BSR / MFS is flexible and can be fitted to compound curves. BSR and MFS refer to the same product where BSR-1 is MFS-124 and BSR-2 is MFS-117. FEATURES AND BENEFITS MARKETS Flexible structure for improved fit Mobile / Data Infrastructure High thermal stability Security and Defense Electrically non-conductive Automotive Electronics High magnetic loss Industrial Electronics Low outgassing Good adhesion to metals VALUE Simplified design due to mechanical and electrical properties Environmentally friendly solution meeting regulatory requirements of RoHS and REACH Improved reliability performance of electronics o Better signal integrity due to high reduction of EMI o Consistent electronics performance due to low outgassing properties o Reliable mechanical attachment TYPICAL PROPERTIES TYPICAL DATA Frequency Range (GHz) 1 40 Service Temperature C 160 Flame Rating UL 94 V-0 (BSR-1) Hardness (Shore A) > 70 Elongation (%) 50 Tensile Strength (MPa) 5.0 8 Volume Resistivity (ohm-cm) 2 x 10 -6 Thermal Expansion (per C) 63 x 10 Thermal Conductivity (W/mK) 0.865 Water Absorption (% 24 hours) < 0.1 Dielectric Strength (v/mil) > 10 Outgassing (%TML) (%CVCM)* 0.47 / 0.28 Data for design engineer guidance only. Observed performance varies in application. Engineers are reminded to test the material in application. * Outgassing data per ASTM E595-07 criteria for acceptability is 1.00% TML and 0.10% CVCM. APPLICATIONS Eccosorb BSR/MFS is engineered to reduce or eliminate surface currents, cavity resonance, coupling, and generally dampen reflections. It will significantly improve the operation of microwave devices by lowering the Q of cavities. Eccosorb BSR/MFS is recommended for use in high reliability aerospace, military, and space applications, exhibiting excellent thermal cycling, shock and vibration absorption characteristics. Some other applications include power amplifiers, oscillators and down/up converters.

Standard thicknesses are 0.25mm (0.010), 0.50mm (0.020), 1.0mm (0.040), 1.5mm (0.060) and 2.54mm (0.100) For most applications material is supplied with a pressure sensitive adhesive. It can be supplied with or without pressure sensitive adhesive (PSA). Available in other thicknesses, sizes, and customer specified shapes upon request. INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE This material is designed to function directly in front of a metallic surface. For applications where the service temperature exceeds 121C (250F), the material can be bonded to most substrates by using an RTV silicone based adhesive in conjunction with a suitable primer. This material can be readily cut with a sharp knife and template. It is a very flexible material and conforms to contoured surfaces.
