Henkel has developed a waterproof sealing adhesive for camera module lens bonding — yet another milestone on the path to fully waterproofed smartphone and wearable devices.

Henkel’s new BERGQUIST GAP PAD material, GAP PAD HC 5.0 is formulated on an entirely new chemistry platform with unique filler technology, created for the increasing requirement for lower-stress materials for next-generation high power density devices.

In this technical article, Henkel presents its findings on the relationship among component size and type, stencil design rules and solder paste characteristics to the occurrence mid-chip balling.

Henkel develops a lead-free, zero halogen solder paste that is stable at 26.5°C for one year, and at 40°C for one month.

LOCTITE GC 10 — the market’s first-ever temperature stable solder paste — offers the unprecedented ability to ship the solder material via standard shipping and without any cold-packing requirements.

Power electronics based on silicon devices must operate below 125°C and IGBTs under 150°C. Future SiC devices could extend this to 200°C. Thermal management of power electronics requires interfacing the package to a heat sink using a thermal interface material (TIM).

Henkel has developed extremely capable electronics materials that allow for high-volume processability, adaptability to manufacturing dynamics and miniaturized designs, as well as delivery of robust device protection against multiple environmental factors for the wearables market.
