Techsil are pleased to introduce a new range of non-setting compounds to their portfolio; incorporating grades which are widely used and respected within the automotive, aerospace and industrial aftermarkets.

Techsil understands cure inhibition can be a problem when testing addition curing silicones for new applications. Here is a comprehensive list of chemicals, materials and elements which could cause inhibition.

Techsil looks at four of the top optically clear encapsulants available for design engineers looking for products offering brilliant long term clarity, good protection from environmental factors, along with excellent thermal characteristics.

Thermal Interface Materials are our biggest & fastest growing product category. Techsil are a driving force in supply of advanced thermal silicone technology to the electronics industry; in this post we highlight our most popular thermal management grades along with their features and benefits.

When faced with a part reproduction application there are many routes available to explore, Techsil evaluates the pro's and con's of various flexible processes incluiding polyurethanes and silicones.

Traditionally mechanical fasteners were seen as the strongest and most reliable fixing method, however, double sided structural adhesive tapes can often exceed this strength, provide longer lasting reliable bonds and offer unique benefits. In this white paper, Techsil analyses the advantages of using tapes as a replacement for mechanical fasteners.

The ability to deposit precise amounts of material is an ever-increasing necessity for manufacturers, particularly when assembling electronics and medical devices. Methods available for dispensing adhesives, epoxies and a multitude of other fluids cover a wide spectrum of techniques from manual applications like squeeze bottles, toothpicks and hand-plunger syringes to semi-automated tabletop dispensing robots.

In this white paper, Vlad Konopeklo explores the switch from manual squeeze bottle dispensing to benchtop fluid dispensing.

Topics Covered:

• Fluid Dispensing and Production Capacity
• Manual Methods
• Precision Fluid Dispensing
• Air-Powered Benchtop Dispensers
• Positive Displacement Dispensers
• Fluid Considerations
• What to look for in Benctop Dispensing Components
• Syringe Barrels
• Pistons
• Dispensing Tips
• Tip Caps and End Caps
