Potting epoxy cures fast at low temperatures
Techsil’s Structalit 8801T, which is said to cure rapidly at low oven temperatures, is specially formulated for temperature-sensitive applications in electronics. According to the company, its resistance against oils and fuels makes it particularly suited for automotive and aerospace applications.
Adhesives deliver better flow control and precise dispensing
Techsil has just introduced two glob top adhesives with a low halogen content. Vitralit UD 8050 and Structalit 8838 are said to provide encapsulation of electronic components on PCBs and allow better flow control and precise dispensing on individual components due to their intrinsic viscosity.
Solvent-free UV-adhesive designed for bonding elastomeric materials
A new solvent free UV-adhesive from Panacol has been presented by Techsil, Vitralit VBB-2N LV features low viscosity and is suited for bonding elastomeric materials. Elastomeric materials and rubbers all differ in their polymer structure, polarity, and surface properties. This makes them very difficult to bond and there are drawbacks with using traditional adhesive systems.
Versatile range of cleaners and solvents
The benefits of using appropriate, technically advanced cleaners and solvents in our industry are well documented - particularly where the use of adhesives for potting, encapsulation, sealing and bonding are part of the process. Now, Techsil has launched a range of cleaners and solvents from MG Chemicals for applications from flux removal and lubrication to priming and preparation for use with adhesives.
Optically clear encapsulants
Techsil has launched a range of optically clear encapsulants which are said to help deliver better performance in electronic assemblies. According to the company, they feature an excellent refractive index and great UV stability – properties that are perfect for potting LED lighting assemblies for example.
Light curable adhesive with three viscosity options
Techsil has introduced a light curing acrylate adhesive from Panacol. Vitralit 7311 is said to be specially formulated for bonding plastics, metals and glass and is available in three different viscosities - a low viscosity, medium flow and a non-flowing gel.
Coatings, sealants included in distribution deal
An agreement has been signed by Techsil to supply Canadian based M.G. Chemicals’ high performance range of adhesives, sealants, coatings and cleaners to the UK’s electronics manufacturing sector. “Techsil has an enviable reputation for providing excellent customer service and part of this is being able to listen to our customers’ needs and respond accordingly,” comments Sales Director Chris Dilley.
UV Adhesive for Difficult to Bond Plastics
Techsil has added a new adhesive to its Vitralit UV 4050s series. Vitralit UV 4050 MV features medium viscosity and is well suited for bonding plastics, especially for medtech applications and medical device assembly. With 450 to 650 mPas Vitralit UV 4050 MV is of medium viscosity.
Jettable adhesives have improved conductivity
Panacol’s UK distributor, Techsil, has introduced adhesives with improved conductivity to the UK market. Jet dispense compatibility and snap cure make these conductive adhesives ideal for high speed production.
High performance silicone adhesive cures at room temperature
Techsil has launched SnapSil TN8000 silicone adhesive into the UK market. It is said to be a versatile, high performance silicone adhesive sealant that exhibits excellent corrosion-free adhesion to many substrates such as metals (including copper), plastics, PPO/PPE, ceramics and glass without the use of primers.
Tapes transfer heat & provide a secure bond
Two thermally conductive tapes that not only allow heat to transfer easily and dissipate quickly but also provide a secure bond have been introduced by Techsil. The Stokvis 202331 and 202332 consist of an acrylic adhesive which contains thermally conductive ceramic particles that transmit heat away from sensitive components.
TIMs target high-performance electronics
Techsil have introduced 2 new one-component thermal interface materials to the electronics market. While fans, heat sinks, and even liquid cooling and thermoelectric devices can be used to provide enough cooling power, the problem remains to get the heat from the hot components into the cooling hardware. Thermal Interface Materials (TIMs) are designed to fill in air gaps and microscopic irregularities, resulting in dramatically lower thermal resi...
