LORD Corporation at Strategies in Light-show: to Present Thermally Conductive Silicone Encapsulants

LORD Corporation - a leading supplier of thermal management materials, adhesives, coatings and encapsulants to the electronics, LED and solar industries - will showcase three thermally conductive silicone encapsulants at the upcoming Strategies in Light show.

To be held Feb. 12-14 at the Santa Clara Convention Center in Santa Clara, Calif, LORD Corporation (booth 830) will demonstrate several Thermoset thermally conductive silicone encapsulants.

Specially designed for thermal conductivity for electrical/electronic encapsulating applications, LORD Thermoset SC-303, SC-309 and SC-320 are two-component systems designed to retain desirable properties associated with silicones. These silicone encapsulants exhibit low shrinkage and stress on components as they cure, and maintain a low viscosity for ease of component encapsulation compared to other highly thermal conductive materials. Environmentally resistant and UL-rated, Thermoset SC-303, SC-309 and SC-320 are composed of an addition-curing polydimethyl siloxane polymer that will not depolymerize when heated in confined spaces.

According to Jim Grieg, Sales and Marketing Manager, Electronic Materials, Thermoset SC-303, SC-309 and SC-320 were designed in response to market needs for high thermal conductivity silicones with low viscosity.
