Alcohol-free range of silicon sealants

Paul Boughton

ThreeBond TB1220 series are silicon sealants with a difference. This zero-alcohol range of products show advances in terms of curing speed and storage. 

The TB1220 adhesive sealants especially suitable for bonding, fixing, sealing, coating or potting of electrical and electronics parts, also in sealing connectors, dielectric sealing and in moisture proof coating.

The full range of TB1220/21/22B/22C and /25B have minimal effect on metal components, eg copper, because they contain no alcohol, also they have little effect on plastics.

For example, TB1222B and TB1222C offer great advantages because the low-molecular siloxane component has been greatly reduced thus avoiding contact failures in micro-motors or in airtight relays or switches. They also offer excellent heat resistance, hot/cold weather resistance and are suitablefor use on PCB’s, connectors etc, in communication equipment or automotive applications.

In addition, TB1225B offers excellent heat dissipating properties so making it ideal for use with switching power supplies, power ICs and computer CPUs or lighting power inverters.

The whole package, through from the general purpose TB1220 to its more specialist brethren, proves a comprehensive silicon sealing solution for the electrical/electronics assembly industries.
