How to Use our Potting Compound Selection Guide Effectively

 

Welcome to PROSTECH’s Potting Compound Selection Guide, an interactive tool designed to help electronics manufacturers optimize their encapsulation and dispensing processes. Utilizing the Potting Compound Selection Guide accurately will save testing time and ensure you quickly determine the exact equipment configuration tailored to your production requirements.

 

To get the most precise technical solution from our Potting Compound Selection Guide & Form, simply follow the classification steps below based on your specific chemical properties.

 

Please choose your number of component of material you want to dispense or pot

  • One-part material: Ideal for standard encapsulation applications, curing via heat or UV moisture without the need for manual or automated mixing.
  • Two-part material: Requires strict control over precise mixing ratios, dynamic/static mixing, and pot life (e.g., Epoxies, Silicones, Polyurethanes).

After selecting your material category within the Potting Compound Selection Guide, please complete the corresponding request form below.

 

Our experienced application engineers will analyze your input data from the Potting Compound Selection Guide to provide a tailored, highly efficient automated dispensing system setup for your manufacturing line.

    Max Operating Temperature

    What is the maximum operating temperature the potting material will experience in the application?

    Maximum Operating Temperature is the peak temperature to which the cured material can be exposed during the operation of the end-device. Continuous operating temperature is usually lower than 230°C.

    °C

    Chemical Resistance

    Which level of chemical resistance is required?

    Chemical resistance means that the cured material withstands the exposure to typical industrial chemicals like Fuels, Diesel, Transmission Oil etc.


    Thermal Conductivity

    If the material must dissipate generated heat:

    Thermal conductivity is the ability to transfer/dissipate heat.


    Flame Retardancy

    Does the material have to be flame retardant?

    Flame retardant materials are designed to make them resistant to catching fire. Testing according to UL 94 V0 is conducted.


    Room Temperature Cure

    Does the material need to cure at room temperature?

    Ability to cure/crosslink the material at room temperature (+/- 25 °C) = No need to cure with elevated temperature.


    Components (1K or 2K)

    Do you prefer a 1- or a 2-component material?

    2-Component Materials: resin and hardener need to be mixed before use – Can be stored at room temperature and cured at room or elevated temperature.

    1-Component Materials: resin and hardener are pre-mixed and ready to use – Cool storage and heat cure required.


    Hardness

    Do you prefer a rather hard or rather soft material?

    Hardness is a measure the deformation resistance of a material against an applied force.
