LED and Electronics

Protecting delicate electronic components is critical, especially with how many products run on these tiny components. As the device operates, factors like moisture, temperature, vibration and shock need to be mitigated as they can cause critical errors.

Compounds Used to Support Electronics

Materials used for electronic protection are usually silicones, epoxy resins, polyurethanes and various other polymers. Silicones in particular are excellent for electronic components because they are durable and have crucial physical properties that support the long-term performance of electronics. In addition, silicones are extremely flexible in design and manufacturing processes.

• Silicones – These durable compounds have crucial physical properties that support the long-term performance of electronics. In addition, silicones are extremely flexible in design and manufacturing and potting processes.
• Epoxy Resins – Great material with properties that make it ideal for sealing and protecting fragile electrical components. These compounds are great for heat dissipation.
• Polyurethanes – Another ideal potting compound. Polyurethane products help set and seal fragile components ensuring they’re long-term function.
