Electrically conductive adhesives (ECAs) are typically based on silver-filled epoxy formulations; however, our product lines also include gold, platinum , nickel and copper. These materials are used as conductive interconnects instead of soldering. Processing at much lower temperatures while being lead-free and less brittle, ECAs are most commonly used for semiconductor packaging, microwave and RF (radio frequency) hermetic enclosures, photonics, PCB assembly and medical devices. Our EPO-TEK® ECAs are also known for being high reliability (HI-REL) die attachment adhesives and are commonly used in military applications (MIL-STD).
