Optical Encapsulants and Adhesives

United Adhesives Inc. provides innovative solutions for optoelectronics with optical-grade epoxy and silicone encapsulants, coatings, adhesives, and sealants. They are applied in bonding and potting fiber-optic cables, connectors and terminations, LCD backlighting, displays, traffic and other lightings, upgrading the vibration and shock resistance of electro-optic assemblies, cementing and coating optical parts, potting LED devices, optical replications, and coating or encapsulating a wide variety of electro-optic and laser components.

They have following outstanding features:

-        Excellent light transmission characteristics.
-        Superior non-yellowing properties or anti-yellowing
-        Silicone based system can cure to low-stress elastomer
-        Resistance to ozone and UV Degradation
-        Broad operating at temperatures of -40 to 180°C.
-        High adhesion, high purity, moisture resistance
-        Reworkable for silicones.
