Requirements for Adhesives in Outdoor Security Camera Assembly
Outdoor security cameras require weatherproof construction and corrosion-resistant materials to withstand rain, snow, and prolonged UV exposure. Key requirements include:
Weather resistance: Outdoor security cameras must endure rain, snow, and extreme temperatures, requiring weatherproof construction. Adhesives should provide waterproof sealing and UV resistance to prevent degradation from prolonged sun exposure.
Strong adhesion to used substrates: Bonding solutions must securely adhere to metals, plastics (PC, PMMA, ABS), glass, and rubber. They should also accommodate thermal expansion and contraction of different materials to prevent bond failure.
Chemical & corrosion resistance: Outdoor conditions expose cameras to salt spray, pollution, and cleaning agents. Adhesives should provide chemical resistance to prevent material breakdown and ensure long-term performance.
Thermal conductivity for heat management: Thermally conductive adhesives improve reliability by transferring heat away from sensitive parts like processors and image sensors.
