Features & Benefits

Product Highlights
  • Two-part, optically clear silicone system
  • 10:1 Mix Ratio (Part A:B)

Applications & Uses

Application Area
Applications
  • For electronic and space applications requiring Ultra Low OutgassingTM and minimal volatile condensables to avoid condensation in sensitive devices
  • As an embedding or potting compound for environmental protection of electronic assemblies and components
  • Provides protection from humidity, radiation, thermal stress and mechanical stress
  • As an adhesive in low-strength applications such as solar cell arrays where clarity and low volatility are important
  • For applications requiring a broader operating temperature range
Instructions for Use

Mixing

Thoroughly mix Part A and Part B, in a 10:1 mix ratio by weight prior to use.

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. Exceptions include butyl and chlorinated rubbers, some RTV silicones and unreacted residues of some curing agents.

Note: Some bonding applications 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. Contact NuSil Technology for details. Some cure schedules* include: 65°C (149°F) 100°C (212°F) 20 minutes 1 minute * Cure time defined as the time required for a knife coat layer ~0.02” to be removed from a release liner
