Low Expansion Adhesives

Low expansion refers to a low coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE)—the amount a cured material expands or contracts as its temperature changes. CTE is commonly reported in parts per million per degree Celsius (ppm/°C). Specialty low-expansion epoxies can have published values around 9–18 ppm/°C, depending on the formulation and measurement conditions. Low-expansion epoxies help maintain dimensional stability in aerospace and defense assemblies exposed to temperature changes. They are particularly useful…

Inside the Package: A Guide to Chip Encapsulation Methods

Modern electronics are marvels of miniaturization, but raw silicon dies are fragile things. Exposed to moisture, mechanical stress, or contaminants, an unprotected chip fails quickly. Encapsulation — the process of sealing a die in protective material — is what makes semiconductor devices robust enough for the real world. Here's a look at the most common encapsulation methods, what makes each one useful, and where you'll find them. Glob Top The…

10 Powerful Applications and Benefits of Thermally Conductive Epoxies

Introduction to Thermally Conductive Epoxies In today’s high-performance world of electronics and engineering, thermally conductive epoxies are the unsung heroes keeping devices cool and reliable. These advanced adhesives are engineered to conduct heat efficiently while providing strong mechanical bonding and electrical insulation. Unlike traditional epoxies, which trap heat, thermally conductive versions transfer it away from sensitive components, reducing the risk of overheating and failure. At their core, these epoxies consist…

How To Choose the Proper Potting Compound: 3 Common Chemistries Explained

What To Consider Before Choosing a Potting Compound Choosing the proper potting compound is critical to protecting electronic assemblies, motors, sensors, and power modules. The right material must handle heat, vibration, moisture, and chemicals while fitting your production process and cost targets. Most potting and encapsulating applications use one of three chemistries: epoxy, urethane, or silicone. Each offers different levels of mechanical strength, flexibility, temperature resistance, and processability. In this…

Polyurethane Potting Compounds

Polyurethane potting compounds are a type of thermosetting polymer material commonly used in electronics and electrical applications for encapsulating or potting electronic components. Potting refers to the process of enclosing or embedding components in a protective compound to enhance their durability, protect against environmental factors, and provide electrical insulation. Polyurethane potting compounds are formulated by combining two main components: a polyol resin and an isocyanate hardener. These components react chemically…
