Join us at Medical Fair Asia 2024 to explore Henkel's comprehensive range of medical solutions, including advanced wearable technology and fast-acting light cure adhesives.

As the market leader in adhesives, sealants, and functional coatings for the automotive industry, Henkel drives automotive designs forward by increasing performance and comfort while reducing vehicle weight, and enabling cost efficiency, speed in development, and improved sustainability. Backed by extensive design capabilities, a broad product range, and technical expertise, we deliver solutions for all segments of a vehicle.

Providing the right adhesive for the right application area takes many complex factors into account. Our automotive adhesive portfolio includes polyurethane, silicone, epoxy, rubber-based and PVC-based adhesive chemistries, to name a few. Integration of sustainable chemistries are also actively pursued, including water-based acrylics and renewable thermosets, proven to reduce carbon dioxide emissions.

Effective thermal management is key to ensuring consistent performance and long-term reliability of many electronic devices. Consumer demand for smaller, higher functioning devices presents even greater challenges for thermal management, as these conditions produce higher temperatures and more stress for electronic components. To ensure effective heat management for semiconductor devices, Henkel has developed the Thermal-Clad/Insulated Metal Substrate, which offers a highly-efficient method to cool these devices. Thermal-Clad insulated substrates minimize thermal impedance and conduct heat more effectively and efficiently than standard printed circuit boards. This information will be presented during the upcoming Henkel webinar, along with details about selection of the application-specific dielectric.

Henkel will explore in this webinar what alternate solution engineers can chose and which dielectric selection is the best for the application.

Automotive electronics' technology continues to find new applications all around the vehicle. Electronic control units are often assembled using Electrically Conductive Adhesives (ECAs), where components are attached to noble metallized ceramic or HDI boards. The major limitation of ECAs has been their instability on common electronic metals, such as tin, which requires the use of expensive noble finished metallizations.

Henkel however, has developed a product that enables stable performance with 100 percent tin-terminated components under several challenging test conditions. Henkel's ECAs provide the benefit of lower processing temperatures compared to solder pastes. This enables bonding of temperature sensitive components to temperature sensitive substrates without damaging them.
