Display, audio and navigation systems – these popular but increasingly complicated electronic modules have shown to benefit from the protection and heat dissipation silicone material solutions bring. Click below for the reliable and surprisingly cost effective silicone materials Dow Corning offers.
Conformal coatings
Conformal coatings are materials applied in thin layers, typically a few mils or a fraction of a mm, onto printed circuits or other electronic substrates. These materials provide environmental and mechanical protection to significantly extend the life of the components and circuitry.
 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.
