Electrically Conductive Adhesives for Building Reliable Connections Automotive electronics' technology continues to find new applications all around the vehicle. Electronic control units are often assembled using Electrically Conductive Adhesives (ECAs), where components are attached to noble metallized ceramic or HDI boards. The major limitation of ECAs has been their instability on common electronic metals, such as tin, which requires the use of expensive noble finished metallizations. Henkel however, has developed a product that enables stable performance with 100 percent tin-terminated components under several challenging test conditions. Henkel's ECAs provide the benefit of lower processing temperatures compared to solder pastes. This enables bonding of temperature sensitive components to temperature sensitive substrates without damaging them. Author: Cindy Doumen Read More

Henkel Dual Cure Adhesives Enables Camera Module Success The camera module industry is the focus of much attention, as the addition of camera features into mobile devices — and now into the automotive segment — is driving manufacturers to develop camera technologies that capitalize on this sector’s growth. The more advanced the camera modules become, particularly as pixels and lens quantity increase, a different technique called ‘Active Alignment’ is employed, which requires dual-cure adhesives with UV and thermal cure capabilities to bond the lens holder to the substrate.
