Silver Epoxy #4898
Electrically conductive silver-filled epoxy for connections
which cannot be soldered
World Precision Instruments, Inc.
#4898 is a two-component silver-filled
epoxy designed specifically for microelec-
tronic applications. A soft, smooth, thixo-
tropic paste, its excellent handling charac-
teristics and extremely long pot life at
room temperatures are obtained without
the use of solvents. In addition to high
electrical conductivity, short curing cycles,
and high and proven reliability of using a
pure silver powder
(no alloys), #4898 is
extremely simple to use. The pure silver
powder is dispersed in both the resin and
hardener, and the system can be used in
a convenient and noncritical 1:1 mixing
ratio.
#4898 is especially recommended for
use where very fast cures are desirable.
#4898 is designed to be used in the
300°C to 400°C range for wire bonding
operations.
