How Does DeoxIT® Gold Actually Work?
Conduction through a DeoxIT® Gold coated surface
takes place in three ways. First, DeoxIT® Gold can be
displaced by electrical arc, shock wave or simple
mechanical pressure and will redistribute itself along the
surface when the disturbance is removed. Second, a thin
insulating film of DeoxIT® Gold can be dispersed by an
electrical field. Finally, conduction takes place through
very thin films of DeoxIT® Gold by means of a quan￾tum-mechanical phenomenon called “tunneling.”
To avoid detouring into a discussion in physics, simply
stated, electrons travel from one side of a thin film of
DeoxIT® Gold to the other without passing through (this
is the same effect that gave the tunnel diode its name).
DeoxIT® Gold fills the gaps in the contact surfaces,
increasing the surface area and current flow (conductivi￾ty). DeoxIT® Gold penetrates the plated surface and
molecularly bonds to the base metal to seal and protect
it (see FIGURE 1). Unlike other products, DeoxIT® Gold
provides long-lasting protection and will not gum-up,
evaporate, varnish, char or breakdown.
Virtually Unlimited Uses for DeoxIT® Gold
DeoxIT® Gold is ideal for use on Gold, precious metal
surfaces, plated contacts and connectors, edge connec￾tors, IC's & sockets, con￾nectors, contacts, plugs
& sockets, relays, circuit
boards (for storage),
s t a t i o n a r y / m o v i n g
connections, and
similar/dissimilar metals.
Use DeoxIT® Gold to
improve and maintain
the performance &
reliability of all electrical
components & equip￾ment.
