New range of clear encapsulants
T
he demand for encapsulants and potting materials is growing dramatically, particularly within the consumer electronics industry.
The specifi cations for this market are high, with many
design engineers looking for products offering brilliant long- term clarity, good protection from environmental factors, along with excellent thermal characteristics. Techsil’s four new optically clear encapsulants are designed to have an excellent refractive index and great UV stability; perfect for potting LED lighting assemblies, for example. RTV27844 is a crystal clear, low viscosity, two-part
silicone that cures at room temperature to a high-strength rubber with a thermal conductivity of 0.45W/mK. It’s used in potting solar cells and assemblies where component identifi cation is desirable. PU22985 is a two-part water clear potting polyurethane
that cures to form a tough 85 Shore A material with good abrasion and hydrolysis resistance and thermal conductivity of 0.3W/mK. It was developed for the potting of luminaires, LEDs and doming applications. MG 8322 is a two-part clear potting epoxy that provides
a tough resilient fi nish to environmental and chemical ingress. It is used to pot LEDs and electronic assemblies in protective blocks. TSE3051 is a convenient one-part silicone that cures to a
soft transparent gel. With low viscosity it is able to penetrate complex assemblies and once cured, provides cushioning for delicate components and protection from humidity and dirt. ●
