Does anybody have any technical data for comparing standard screening can capabilities to that of Metalised Plastics screening qualities/capabilities. I am interested in looking at producing our screening cans in a suitable plastic material and plating them. Whilst the RF Shielding capabilities would probably not be as good as standard Copper tin plated cans it may be sufficient for our puroses whilst at the same time reduce our costs. Before we go ahead with an expensive programme to measure this it may be that somebody has already done so. Does anybody have any ideas please.
