NuSil To Demostrate Silicone Primer Processing And Application
Silicone encapsulants are widely used in the LED industry and their adhesion to
leadframe and other structural substrates is critical to the reliability of the device.
Silicone primer technology has been demonstrated to significantly improve adhesion of
silicones to a range of substrates. NuSil recommends carefully evaluating the
application of silicone primers by spraying, wiping and dipping processes.
“NuSil’s experience with silicone primers, both in formulating and partnering with
customers for optimal processing has given the company expertise in this area,“
said Brian Nash, vice president of Marketing and Sales. “Our primer demonstration will
provide attendees with a better understanding of the technology and applications.“..

NuSil Technology Unveils Line of Rapid Curing Inks
R-2100-2 is a two-part black ink, dispersed in xylene, that cures rapidly with the addition
of heat. The ink provides good surface adhesion, making it ideal for marking or printing
on silicone rubber parts and other components. R-2100-2 cures with most materials
common to biomedical assemblies and, if another color is needed, NuSil can readily
modify the ink color to fit clients’ requirements.
“This rapid-cure product is designed to
reduce or eliminate time constraints in the inkapplication
process,“ said Brian Nash, vice president of Marketing and Sales. “In
addition, the ability to customize the color of these inks provides our customers with
greater application flexibility.“..
