NEWS // FEATURES // NEW PRODUCTS Electrolube exhibits the New Silicone Resin range


and ‘green’ products at Farnborough show Electrolube, the global manufacturer of electro- chemicals, will feature its newest products for the electronics, automotive and industrial manufacturing industries at the Southern Manufacturing and Electronics Show, stand L6, at FIVE in Farnborough on the 15- 16 February. Electrolube’s new SC


them the perfect barrier against a number of extreme conditions. In advance of December’s new


range of silicone products will be a main feature at the show, following on from the vast amount of interest created during Productronica. Developed for the needs of the LED industry, the silicone resin SC3001 was only available in China and Australia until recently, where it has grown to become one of the company’s most successful silicone products ever. SC3001 is a two-part encapsulation compound that has been designed to be optically clear and fl exible, making it ideal for the LED industry where optical clarity is vital. The ‘2000’ silicone resin series includes SC2001, a general potting and encapsulating compound, SC2001FD a fast cure compound and SC2003 a thixotropic compound. All have high continuous operating temperatures, making


REACH regulations restricting the supply of dichloromethane- based paint and coating stripping products, Electrolube’s Chemists extended the company’s family of solvent cleaners by developing ‘greener’ solvent formulations that adhere with the latest legislations. The new Resin Remover Solvent (RRS) and Conformal Coating Remover Gel (CCRG) will be featured at the show and provide safer solvent blends that offer highly effective results without the use of dichloromethane. RRS has been designed to swell, soften, and even dissolve epoxy and polyurethane resins. CCRG has


been specially formulated to remove Electrolube’s solvent resistant coatings (including DCA, DCB and DCR, amongst others). New products on show will also include the epoxy resin, ESLE-10 and underfi ll resin ES501. ESLE-10 is a one-part silver loaded epoxy resin with excellent adhesion, used as a conductive bond between solder-free surface mount connections, solder repairs, static discharge and grounding or general conductive adhesion. ES501 underfi ll resin improves adhesion strength of devices during mechanical stress without compromising thermal


cycle performance. Providing void-free underfi ll of area array devices, ES501 can be reworked and used in high- volume assembly. Electrolube will also showcase


two of its most recent ‘green’ innovations, FREH Freezer Spray, and the EADH Air Duster. Both products have been developed without the use of harmful gases and contain a hydrofl uorocarbon propellant with superior environmental properties to the HFC-134a propellant commonly used in alternative products. Research has shown that by switching to the propellant used in FREH and EADH, equivalent CO2 emissions can be reduced by >99.5%*. Visitors can meet Jade Bridges,


European Technical Support Specialist, who will be on hand to answer any technical or product enquiries, alongside Electrolube’s knowledgeable sales team. Electrolube’s extensive portfolio of


products includes contact lubricants, conformal coatings, thermally conductive materials, resins and service and maintenance products. Visit Electrolube at stand L6 or go to www.electrolube.com for further information. * Calculated. GWP (vs. CO2, 100 year ITH): FREH and EADH = 6; HFC-134a = 1300. >99.5% is for pure 134a; blends with other propellants may be <99.5%.
