May/June, 2012 Henkel Intros Highest Rated Molding Compound
Irvine, CA — Henkel has recently expanded its low-pressure molding MACROMELT technology portfolio, adding a material designed specifically for high thermal stability and chemical resistance. The product, MACROMELT MM6208, has all
of the inherent benefits consistent with MACRO - MELT technology, but has a high (95°C) Relative Temperature Index (RTI) rating making it suitable for certain automotive, consumer and appliance applications where a very high RTI rating is required for good thermal stability. In fact, at 95°C, the product carries the highest RTI rating in its class of materials, as the majority of hot melt systems have RTIs of 65°C or less. Like all MACROMELT materials, MM6208
has been designed with superior performance, device protection and ease-of-use at its core. These unique materials are polyamide-based hot melt
formulas that can quickly over-mold, encapsulate and protect exposed circuitry while simultaneous-
In use, an exceptionally low application pres-
sure of between 20 and 500 psi is all that is needed, which greatly reduces stress and damage for sensi- tive electronic components and its very low modulus and hardness make it well-suited for flexible appli- cations. With one of the lower melting point materi- als available, it provides easier encapsulation of ceramics, wire bonds and leaded solder joints. The material is available in two different 95°C RTI-rated versions — MM6208 in an amber

ly forming the product’s outer shell. Once encapsu- lated, the product becomes a self-contained inte- grated assembly.

Lumex Adds to Sunbrite Line of LEDs
Palatine, IL — Lumex has expanded its SunBrite™ family of general illu- mination LED technologies. Two new SunBrite technology categories — the SunBrite 5-Watt MR-16 Retrofit LED and the SunBrite Modular LED Lightbar are now available world- wide. The new SunBrite LED tech- nologies are said to provide consider- able energy savings and are well suited for a wide range of applica- tions that include general, spot and track lighting in residential, com- mercial and industrial applications. The SunBrite 5-Watt MR-16
Retrofit LED provides significant cost and performance benefits com- pared to halogen alternatives widely available in the market today. The SunBrite MR-16 Retrofit LED tech- nology offers comparable brightness (300 Lumens at 12 volts) and color performance (CRI over 80) to halogen alternatives, while simultaneously providing significant energy, cost and lifespan improvements. The RoHs-compliant MR-16
LED uses up to 80 percent less cur- rent than alternative halogen tech- nologies. In addition, the lifespan of the MR-16 LED is up to 8x longer than that of a standard halogen tech- nology (17 years compared to roughly 2 years assuming Energy Star aver- age daily usage of 4 hours/day).
Sunbrite general illumination LEDs.
The LED’s metal body construc-
tion serves as a natural heat sink and makes the technology more durable than halogen alternatives. This greatly reduces labor costs asso- ciated with bulb replacements. The modular technology family uses a wide variety of compatible compo- nents making it possible to mix-and- match.
