One Part Fast Curing Epoxy for Bonding and Small Encapsulation Applications
Master Bond EP4EN-80 is a NASA low outgassing approved epoxy, which can cure at temperatures as low as 80°C, unlike conventional one component heat curing systems. It features a quick cure profile at 65°C for 90 minutes plus 30 minutes at 80-85°C. The epoxy system requires no mixing prior to use, has a very low viscosity of 600-1,800 cps and contains no solvents. Free flowing … [Read more...]

Heat-Blocking Defects Detected Acoustically
In the landing gear control module of an aircraft, a high-voltage IGBT is about to fail. In the solder bonding one chip’s ceramic base to its heat sink are three small air bubbles—voids, in the vocabulary of electronic failures. The three voids are close together, and the largest is almost directly under a hot spot on the die. Collectively the voids have diminished … [Read more...]
