Abstract
Abstract A corrosion inhibiting, EMI/RFI shielding composition is provided comprising a polyurethane resin which comprises a hydroxy or amine functional first polymer and an isocyanate terminated second polymer, a stabilized conductive filler, and an azole. In one embodiment of the invention a coating is provided comprising a polyurethane which comprises a fluoroolefin vinyl ether and an isocyanate terminated castor oil prepolymer, a stabilized copper powder, and a triazole selected from the group consisting of alkyl substituted aromatic triazoles and other azoles. The invention further provides a method of coating a substrate with a coating of the invention in order to provide EMI/RFI shielding and prevent corrosion, and a substrate thus coated.
