Electrically Conductive Adhesives For Electronics Applications

Bonding instead of soldering: Electrically conductive adhesives have many advantages over conventional soldering processes. Conductive adhesives are the perfect solution for making electrical contacts on temperature-sensitive substrates, as their curing temperature lies clearly below soldering temperature. In addition the adhesives are much more flexible than solder and are therefore better able to withstand vibrations. A further advantage over soldering is that conductive adhesives are lead- and solvent-free.

With its Elecolit® range Hoenle offers a broad spectrum of electrically conductive adhesives: single-component adhesives that can be simply applied with dispensers or jets or screen-printed, as well as two-component products that cure at room temperature and have a long storage life. Innovative hardener systems in many of the one part epoxy based adhesives develop cure within minutes.
