This company now offers EA-4600, a new hot-melt adhesive from Dow Corning. The solvent-free, one-component, moisture-cure silicone material reportedly offers longer open time and pot life, as well as lower odor and lower levels of volatility compared to conventional organic-based hot-melt adhesives.

Designed for the electronic devices market, the adhesive can deliver enhanced reliability, reworkability and waterproofing for smart devices. With its room-temperature vulcanization (RTV), the black adhesive reportedly provides improved assembly of consumer electronics and other high-volume demanding manufacturing operations.
