NuSil\u2019s\u00a0Engineering and Electronics business unit has developed LS2-6140, an optically clear\u00a0primerless encapsulant, and\u00a0R-2175, a flowable, thermally stable potting compound,\u00a0as part of concentrated efforts to increase market specialization in the fast-paced\u00a0industries sectors it serves.<\/p>\n<p>LS2-6140 is a low viscosity, optically clear silicone encapsulant that offers strong\u00a0adhesion to ceramic and common plastics used for electronic components without\u00a0the need for primer. This versatile elastomer has a 45 Type A durometer and is\u00a0optically stable with a refractive index (RI) of 1.40. Ideal for use in High Power and\u00a0UV LED applications, it can be used to bond or encapsulate optical components that\u00a0will be exposed to high lumen intensity at elevated temperatures. The low viscosity\u00a0of LS2-6140 allows for processing by way of spin coating, dispensing, casting or\u00a0compression molding.<\/p>\n<p>R-2175 is a black, pourable, versatile silicone potting compound adept at providing\u00a0support for electronics packages such as power supplies, sensors, and AC\/DC and\u00a0DC\/DC high efficiency convertors. Its rheology yields a conformal material that\u00a0works well with complex geometries and its 0.4 W\/mK thermal conductivity helps\u00a0dissipate heat. R-2175 comes in a variety of packaging configurations to ease\u00a0transition into any manufacturing environment.<\/p>\n<p>LS2-6140 and R-2175 are unique materials designed to support and protect\u00a0photonic and electronic systems. PST is pushing forward and developing such\u00a0products for Engineering, Electronics, and Photonics in an expanding silicone\u00a0technology world, offering to meet the growing needs of these industries.\u00a0LS2-6140 and R-2175 have been tested per UL 94 and passed V0 and are REACH\u00a0and ROHS compliant.<\/p>\n<p>For more information to look at the mixing, processing cure mechanical properties of\u00a0these materials, please contact POLYMER SYSTEMS TECHNOLOGY LTD ON 01494\u00a0446610 OR ON EMAIL: <a title=\"Email sales@silicone-polymers.co.uk\" href=\"mailto:sales@silicone-polymers.co.uk?subject=Silicone Materials For Potting And Encapsulating\">sales@silicone-polymers.co.uk<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New versatile silicones provide durable support and protection in electronic and\u00a0photonic applications. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; High Wycombe, January 30, 2013 \u2014 (http:\/\/www.silicone-polymers.co.uk), aUK leader in silicone materials for the medical implants, aerospace, electronics and\u00a0engineering markets, will officially debut &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.silicone.me.uk\/?p=627\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[5],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.silicone.me.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/627"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.silicone.me.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.silicone.me.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.silicone.me.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.silicone.me.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=627"}],"version-history":[{"count":28,"href":"https:\/\/www.silicone.me.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/627\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":742,"href":"https:\/\/www.silicone.me.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/627\/revisions\/742"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.silicone.me.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=627"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.silicone.me.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=627"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.silicone.me.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=627"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
