Silicone Potting Compound 029 (Thermally Conductive) – Two-component Condensation-Curing Material with Thermal Conductivity of 2 W/mK

Silicone Potting Compound 029 is an advanced, two-component, thermally conductive material with a condensation-curing mechanism. This high-quality product is designed for efficient heat dissipation and the protection of electronic systems from harmful external factors. It is ideal for applications requiring effective protection against moisture, dust, vibrations, and cyclic temperature changes. It also provides excellent heat management.

What Makes Silicone Potting Compound 029 Stand Out?

Silicone Potting Compound 029 offers a wide range of benefits that make it indispensable in electronic applications. With its condensation-curing mechanism, this compound forms a solid, durable rubber, providing excellent protection and 2 W/mK heat conductivity.

Once cured, it forms a dry, flexible coating with a hardness of 63 on the Shore A scale. With a viscosity of 1,455 cP and excellent fluidity before curing, the product easily fills even the smallest gaps and complex structures.

Applications of Silicone Potting Compound 029

This potting compound is used across various industries where both effective heat management and environmental protection are critical. Examples include:

• Sealing electronic and electrical systems: The compound provides protection against moisture, dust, vibrations, and other threats that could shorten the lifespan of systems.
• Protecting power semiconductors and energy converters: With its excellent heat conductivity, the product is ideal for systems operating under high loads.
• Automotive electronics: It safeguards control and power systems in vehicles from extreme temperatures and vibrations.
• Telecommunications and IT: It protects against overheating and mechanical damage in telecommunication devices and computer equipment.

Application Process

The application of Silicone Potting Compound 029 is straightforward but requires following a few steps to ensure optimal system protection.

1. Surface Preparation: Before starting the potting process, clean, degrease, and dry the electronic system. This crucial step ensures optimal adhesion and the effectiveness of the material’s protection.
2. Mixing the Components: The compound consists of two components—silicone base material and catalyst—that need to be thoroughly mixed in the correct proportions. Mixing can be done manually or mechanically, depending on the batch size, to achieve a homogeneous composition.
3. Air Removal: To avoid air bubbles, it is recommended to remove air from the mixture using a vacuum chamber. This step ensures the material will cure uniformly, without unwanted voids, improving its mechanical and thermal properties.
4. Application and Curing: After preparing the mixture, apply it precisely to the system. It is important to leave the system open after application to allow condensation products like ethanol to evaporate. Curing at room temperature takes about 100 hours.

Advantages of Silicone Potting Compound 029

• High thermal conductivity: With a thermal conductivity of 2 W/mK, the product effectively dissipates excess heat, which is essential for electronics working under heavy loads.
• Excellent fluidity: The product easily fills even the most complex structures, ensuring full protection in hard-to-reach areas.
• Flexibility and durability: Once cured, the compound turns into a hard, gray rubber that protects against vibrations and mechanical damage.
• Resistance to cyclic temperature changes: The compound adheres firmly to surfaces even in conditions of regular temperature fluctuations, making it ideal for applications requiring effective heat management.
• Moisture and dust protection: It effectively shields systems from harmful external factors, extending their lifespan.
