Encapsulating and Staking UV Silicone
NOVAGARD® Silicones UV cured encapsulating compounds impart excellent insulation properties, vibration dampening and barrier protection against weather and severe environmental conditions. Available as low viscosity fluids, semi-flowable viscous liquids and thixotropic pastes Novagard has a product to meet any application need. If necessary, a moisture curable component provides for shadow curing in any area unexposed to the ultraviolet light source. Often it is desirable to salvage or reclaim damaged or defective devices; Novagard UV-cured silicones may be selectively removed with relative ease allowing for quick repairs and re-potting.
Potential Applications
- Power supplies, relays, high voltage resistors
- Industrial controls, transformers, amplifiers
- Sensors and connectors
- General potting applications
Ultra-Violet Systems
- Exceptionally fast UV cure ; Room temperature curing
- Minimal UV energy requirements; Little or no heat generated so parts remain cool
- Process or package a part immediately; No racking
- Cure up to 5/8” (16 mm) of material 10 times faster than other well known brands
- No oxygen inhibition ; No corrosive by-products
- Excellent dielectric properties
UV/Moisture Dual Cure
- Cures upon exposure to either a UV light source or atmospheric moisture
- Dual cure continues to build strength and adhesion after the initial UV cure cycle
- Moisture cure eliminates shadow effects on complex parts
- Neutral, non-corrosive secondary cure system will not harm sensitive components
- Excellent dielectric properties
- Solvent Free / 100% solids – no VOC’s to handle or report
