Dow has launched three new silicone technologies for electric and hybrid-electric vehicle electronics applications. These innovative new products - DOWSIL TC-2035 CV Adhesive, DOWSIL TC-4551 CV Gap Filler and DOWSIL TC-4060 GB250 Thermal Gel - increase the already high value and versatility of Dow’s silicones portfolio to meet the evolving needs of automotive electrification.

Advanced features of these DOWSIL products include reliable performance, high thermal conductivity, controlled volatility for very efficient heat dissipation, and easy processing for enhanced productivity.

“With decades of proven expertise, Dow continues to expand our silicone material solutions to successfully meet the industry’s fast-changing requirements and regulations by providing greater reliability, safety and performance,” said Luc Dusart, marketing manager e-Mobility, Dow.

Technologies to enable low-carbon mobility

DOWSIL TC-2035 CV Adhesive delivers high thermal conductivity, a fast cure and outstanding room temperature shelf life stability for the assembly of automotive electronics, including advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) units and electronic control units (ECUs). DOWSIL TC-4551 CV Gap Filler also provides high thermal conductivity and reliable performance in automotive power electronics, ECUs and ADAS.

New DOWSIL products offer good thermal conductivity, easy processing and controlled volatility for demanding automotive electronics applications.

New DOWSIL TC-2035 CV Adhesive and DOWSIL TC-4551 CV Gap Filler feature controlled volatility, which supports sustainability and regulatory compliance, and also helps to avoid electrical contact failure that can occur due to the evaporation of volatiles.

Heat dissipation for automotive power electronics

The third new product, DOWSIL TC-4060 GB250 Thermal Gel, provides very high thermal conductivity of the new grades, at 6 W/m.K. The exceptional heat dissipation capability of this material, combined with very good dispensing properties, makes it suitable for applications such as converters, inverters and onboard chargers for battery packs. This soft thermal gel also supplies stress relief and shock damping and performs reliably under high-power and high-temperature conditions.

DOWSIL TC-2035 CV Adhesive, DOWSIL TC-4551 CV Gap Filler and DOWSIL TC-4060 GB250 Thermal Gel can also optimize production and reduce cycle times through features such as room temperature cure, primerless adhesion to selected substrates and precise dispensing.
