Gap filler compound

27 January 2016 Manufacturing / Production Technology, Hardware & Services

Henkel Adhesive Technologies’ Gap Filler 1400SL combines the properties of low viscosity and, relative to conventional self-levelling products, comparatively high thermal conductivity in a unique formula designed to accommodate challenging architectures.

It has a thermal conductivity of 1,4 W/m-K and is exceptionally soft when cured, allowing for absorption of coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) stresses and providing mechanical shock dampening for fragile assemblies. The material is ideal for multiple applications including high-power components such as FETs, industrial controllers with transient loads and automotive electronics like DC-DC converters for hybrid vehicles.

Cured at room temperature with no by-products, Gap Filler 1400SL provides consistent curing throughout the compound with no restrictions on thickness and the ability to accelerate curing with exposure to elevated temperature.
