Conductive Adhesives for Electronics
An alternative to solder, these flexible, silver-filled adhesives accommodate joint movement. Use them to bond electrical components and repair circuits.
Epoxy adhesives are two-part adhesives that need to be mixed together. The size listed is the combined total of the two parts.
Thermoplastic adhesives are one-part adhesives that don’t need to be mixed. Dry to the touch and faster and easier to apply than two-part adhesives, they’re best for use on automated assembly lines. Often used to join solar cells in solar panels, these adhesives make instant electrical connections without flux at lower temperatures than soldering. Since they attach to solar cells with heat and slight pressure, they limit stress cracks that can form when soldering. These adhesives can also be used as a bridge between multiple solar panels.

Mixer Nozzles for Two-Part Adhesive Cartridges



To simultaneously mix and dispense two-part adhesives, attach these mixer nozzles to a dual cartridge. Mixing elements help combine the two parts of an adhesive as it flows through the nozzle. A short nozzle with many mixing elements combines adhesive while minimizing the adhesive left in the nozzle after dispensing. Choose a nozzle that matches the connection type, size, and mix ratio of your adhesive cartridge.
A step tip allows you to trim the opening to the diameter you need.

Heat-Transfer Potting Compounds
Formulated to draw heat away from sensitive electronic components, these potting compounds have higher thermal conductivity than standard potting compounds. Use them to encase electronic assemblies for protection from dust, chemicals, moisture, mechanical shock, and vibration. Rigid and wear resistant, epoxies are the strongest of the potting compounds. They have excellent chemical and moisture resistance, withstand a wide range of temperatures, and provide excellent electrical insulation.
Cartridge potting compound requires a gun and mixer nozzle (each sold separately) to dispense.

Conductive Surface Fillers for Electronics



A high silver content allows these surface fillers to conduct electricity and heat. Use them to fill gaps and rebuild missing material on electrical connections or to assemble new components. Product regulations restrict sales to the listed jurisdictions/areas.
Surface fillers in one-time-use packets and jars come as two parts. The size listed is the combined total of the two parts.
Surface filler in a pen dispenses as a thin, ready-to-use liquid that fills in pitting and small gaps. It’s often used on circuit boards to fix components or to prototype new systems.
Volume resistivity and surface resistivity measure how well a material opposes the flow of electricity. The lower the rating, the more electricity it conducts.
Thermal conductivity measures a material’s ability to transfer heat. The higher the rating, the more heat it transfers.
