Low Loss and Dielectric Constant

ZEONEX Cyclo Olefin Polymer (COP) exhibits low-loss and low-dielectric constant properties, which can improve efficiency of LTE, GSM and Wi-Fi antennas compared with traditional materials. Also, ZEONEX Cyclo Olefin Polymer (COP) can be used as cost-effective, moldable alternative to fluoropolymers in RF connector and other dielectric applications.

Stable Performance at Multiple Frequencies

ZEONEX Cyclo Olefin Polymer (COP) maintains excellent, uniform electrical properties over the frequencies commonly used for cellular voice, LTE data, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth frequencies.

Low Moisture Absorption

ZEONEX Cyclo Olefin Polymer (COP) is a hydrophobic resin, with moisture absorption ~0.01%. As a result, antenna and dielectric components made of ZEONEX Cyclo Olefin Polymer (COP) show excellent electrical stability in high-humidity environments. In comparison, PC/ABS parts show significant change in electrical properties – leading to detuning of the antenna – after humidity exposure.
