Henkel: New Electrically Conductive Adhesive
Irvine, CA —In a significant formula- tion breakthrough, Henkel Electronic Materials has developed a new elec- trically conductive adhesive (ECA) compatible with lower-cost, tin-termi- nated components to enable more cost-effective assembly processes. The new material, Ablestik ICP- 3535M1 is a one-component, pre- mixed ECA that provides low and stable contact resistance when used with 100 percent tin-terminated components. The benefits of ECAs are
well-established and include lower temperature processing, more streamlined manufacturing tech- niques, lower stress assemblies and regulatory-compliant lead- free formulations. Historically, one of the few drawbacks associat- ed with ECAs has been the materi- als’ inability to cope with non-noble metals on component terminations, making them useful primarily with palladium silver-, silver-, or gold-fin- ished components. Ablestik ICP- 3535M1 now delivers all of the afore- mentioned benefits with the added advantage of tin compatibility, thereby enabling high-performance and cost-efficient processes. The reliability of the new mate-

rial has been confirmed through var- ious analyses, maintaining its stable contact resistance and good mechan- ical integrity after 3,000 hours of temperature and humidity testing, 3,000 cycles of thermal shock evalu- ation and 3,000 hours of heat stor- age. In each case, it outperformed
competitive samples against which it was tested. In addition, the new ECA also exhibits excellent perform- ance with very small components such as 0402s, displaying absolutely

zero bridging or wicking with highly miniaturized devices. The new ECA is particularly
well-suited for a variety of automo- tive applications, but also has rele- vance for any environment where high reliability and cost reduction targets are important. These may include the aerospace sector, wire- less datacom infrastructure (WDI) products, security devices, lighting
technology and others. Contact: Henkel Corp., 1400
