LOCTITE ABLESTIK ICP 3535M1 electrically conductive adhesives (ECAs) reportedly provide a robust alternative to solder for many applications, lower component assembly stress and facilitate lead-free interconnection for regulatory compliance.
The adhesives have found use at global automotive electronics manufacturers, where it is being used for the production of transmission control units and qualified for several other automotive applications. The adhesives reportedly offer stable contact resistance and good mechanical integrity after 3,000 hrs of temperature and humidity testing, 3,000 cycles of thermal shock evaluation, and 3,000 hrs of heat storage. It consistently outperformed competitive samples against which it was tested, according to the company.
