Click below to get an overview of the materials you can pick from and contact Dow Corning to learn about the wide range of truly reliable materials that have proven their performance.
 Gels
Gels are a special class of encapsulants that cure to an extremely soft material. Cured gels retain much of the stress relief and self-healing qualities of a liquid while providing the dimensional stability of an elastomer.
Adhesives and Sealants
Adhesives are used primarily to attach components, such as module lids and baseplates, within electronic modules and to seal openings in a module to exclude dirt, water or other contaminants.
Thermal interface - Wet dispensed
Dow Corning supplies a line of thermally conductive materials, including curing adhesives, gels and encapsulants, plus non-curing compounds. The materials are supplied as liquids and pastes that are dispensed or printed when used.
Thermal interface - Pads and films
Dow Corning supplies many types of thermal interface materials such as fabricated films and pads, which do not need to be dispensed or cured. These include thin thermal pads, gap fillers and phase change films. Fabricated films and pads are supplied ready to use for those who prefer not to utilize curing processes.
