Common characteristics
Simple handling and processing
YSHIELD shielding paints can be universally applied. Compared to wallpapers, fleeces or nettings they are easy to apply, even in structured rooms with bays, pitched roofs and dormers. Painters recommend our shielding paints for ease of application. All paints are best applied with a paint roller.
Perfect corrosion restistance
Most shielding products containing metal components are not adequately protected against corrosion. Our shielding paints HSF54, HSF74 and NSF34 shield without metal particles using a mixture of carbons. Therefore they offer perfect corrosion resistance (no oxidizing) and long-term durability.
Carefully selected Ingredients
YSHIELD shielding paints do not contain solvents, plasticisers, or any other toxic ingredients. All ingredients were carefully selected, regardless of price and according to their quality and safety for the environment. Therefore they are very low-emission products that meet the strictest standards for application in “Building Biology” projects.
Sustainability
Due to its holohedral structure, without meshes, our shielding paints HSF54 and HSF74 offer consistent attenuation regardless of the direction of signal polarization. Future-proof for all new developments of the telecommunications industry at frequencies up to 18 GHz.
VOC emissions
All of our shielding paints are tested for volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions according to the ChemVOCFarbV. This testing is done by an accredited and independent laboratory. Test results are given in the table on page 1. Current limits (from 2010) as prescribed by law are 30 g/l. Our standard paints HSF54 and NSF34 boasts a 0.2 g/l VOC value, 150 times below the current limit.
Shielding attenuation
The shielding attenuation is regularly tested in our own laboratory or by Professor Dipl.Ing. Pauli at the University of the German Federal Armed Forces in Munich. Current expert report is available uppon request.
Areas of application
YSHIELD shielding paints are used worldwide in many applications. Living areas: Protection against HF-radiation from cell phone towers, TV and radio broadcasting antennas, radar, digital standard cordless telephones and wireless networks, etc. Protection against low-frequency electric fields from power supply lines, etc. Industry: To prevent interception of data from wireless networks („data-stealing“), and potentially bugged conference rooms. Science and R&D: Shielding of EMI-sensitive facilities and equipment. Medicine: Protection of sensitive technical equipment; to guarantee important medical data is derived correctly and will not be altered by electromagnetic interference (EMI). Electronic Industry (e.g. recording studios): To reduce induction and interference. Further applications: data centers, technical rooms, schools, nurseries, hotel rooms, hospital rooms, etc.
