Storage

ET 1642 has a shelf life of at least 6 months when stored below 35°C in the originally sealed container. The 'Best use before end' date of each batch appears on the product label. Storage beyond the date specified on the label does not necessarily mean that the product is no longer usable. In this case however, the properties required for the intended use must be checked for quality assurance reasons.

Characteristic

ET 1642 is an epoxy-based high thermally conductive structural bonding adhesive for electronic applications. It is a two-component, flowable, addition-curing system that cures at room temperature or elevated temperature to provide strong bonding to metals such as aluminum, copper, and FR4 based printed circuit board with excellent thermal conductivity. The cured material also has very low CTE for better thermal cycle performances. ET 1642 is dispensable.

• Thermally conductive structural bonding
• Thermally conductive vibration

Processing Instruction

Important! Only components A and B with the same lot number may be processed together! For the package in a container (not in a cartridge), to ensure homogeneity of the material, the components must be stirred thoroughly before they are removed or processed in order to uniformly disperse any fillers that might have settled during storage. For long-term storage, it is recommended to store the material in –40°C freezer to prevent filler from settling.. We recommend running preliminary tests to optimize conditions for the particular application. Comprehensive processing instructions can be obtained by contacting directly to United Adhesives, Inc.
