Cavity-fill Encapsulant

01/01/2000

UVE-1017-3 is a UV-curable encapsulant for cavity-fill IC encapsulation. It is said to cure in three minutes; this fast cure time reportedly increases line speed and productivity. The product is said to be sensitive to 365 nm broadband radiation. The viscosity is 13,000 cps at 68°C, and even lower at higher temperatures, facilitating flow and wetting. Its low thixotropy makes it a self-leveling material. The encapsulant also has "dark cure" properties, allowing it to continue curing when only partially cured by a shorter UV exposure.
