  • Methods of forming conductive thermoplastic polyetherimide polyester compositions and articles formed thereby
    Patent number: 6734262
    Abstract: An electrically conductive thermoplastic composition with a superior ability to be heated rapidly in an electromagnetic field comprises a polyetherimide resin, a polyester resin, and electrically conductive filler. Such compositions display good dimensional stability at elevated temperatures especially when heated rapidly using electromagnetic radiation, which renders them useful in articles and operations where rapid assembly is important.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 7, 2002
    Date of Patent: May 11, 2004
    Assignee: General Electric Company
    Inventor: Niraj C. Patel
