I'm looking for a small quantity of inexpensive conductive
paint or adhesive for use with metallized plastic parts in a
potential microwave application. I have a couple of ounces of
silver bearing (>99% based on weight) pain in some kind of a
nitrocellulose binder which I've been hoarding for almost 60 years
but hate to use it if something less expensive is available. Seems
to me there must be, probably copper based, but a quick look hasn't
turned up anything.
Any clues? I'm not intending to coat terminals or anything like
that, just make electrical connection between brass waveguide and
plastic parts. Need enough strength to permit safe handling but may
be able to accomplish that part by overcoating with epoxy
cement. Any suggestions welcome.
