Optically clear bonding

In recent years, the quality and performance of consumer  electronics such as computers, mobile phones  and laptops has improved tremendously. While the  devices and components are becoming smaller and lighter as performance increases, the demands on  manufacturers are growing. 

One example of the technological development in  the manufacturing of consumer electronics is the  use of innovative adhesives. These adhesives are  used especially in the production of small camera  modules for mobile phones. This includes bonding  the individual parts such as the lens in the holder or  the lens holder on the camera sensor. The adhesives  not only guarantee precise fixing and a permanent  connection with the single parts of the camera modules,  they also have an extreme degree of ‘purity’ so  as not to impair the quality of the optics. 

With Ancamine® 2914UF curing agent, Evonik’s  business line Crosslinkers designed a new ultrafast  and environmentally friendly 2K epoxy curing  agent for structural adhesives applications which,  for example, can increase productivity in the electronics  manufacturing sector. 

Ancamine® 2914UF sets within ten minutes at room  temperature and is an odorless non-Mercaptan, 100  percent solids, BPA-, nonyl phenol- and benzyl alcohol- free, non-yellowing curing agent. Additionally,  it provides excellent mechanical properties and  good thermal resistance. These properties make  Ancamine® 2914UF curing agent an ideal choice for  the structural and general-purpose adhesives, where  it allows end users to improve production throughput.  And this is exactly why manufacturers turn to Evonik for their advanced materials solutions.
