- Applications
- For applications requiring Ultra Low OutgassingTM and minimal volatile condensables under extreme operating conditions to avoid condensation in sensitive devices
- Use a bonding, sealing, or potting material in electronic and space applications
- Provides radiation resistance, low thermal conductivity, oxidation stability, thermal stability and good ablative characteristics
- Especially useful to bond solar cells to solar array panels
- For applications requiring a broader operating temperature range
- Instructions for Use
Mixing
Thoroughly stir both parts individually prior to mixing, as some separation may occur. Mix Part A and Part B in a 1:1 ratio by weight.
Vacuum Deaeration
Remove air entrapped during mixing by common vacuum deaeration procedure, observing all applicable safety precautions. Slowly apply full vacuum to a container rated for use and at least four times the volume of the material being deaerated. Hold vacuum until bulk deaeration is complete.
Inhibition Concerns
Cures in contact with most materials common to electronic assemblies. Exceptions include butyl and chlorinated rubbers, some RTV silicones and unreacted residues of some curing agents. Units being encapsulated, containers and dispensers should be dry, clean, and free of surface contaminants. Cure inhibition can usually be prevented by washing all containers with solvent or volatizing contaminants by heating.
Note: Some bonding application may require the use of a primer. NuSil Technology CF1-135 silicone primer is recommended.
Adjustable Cure
Schedule Product cures a wide range of elevated temperatures and cure times to accommodate different production needs.
