  • 6-Hour 65 deg C Cure
  • 1:1 Meter-Mix Processing

Product Description

LOCTITE® ABLESTIK 967-3 is a two-component, electrically insulating epoxy adhesive developed for die-attach applications requiring lower-than-normal cure temperatures. The brownish-gray material mixes at 1:1 by weight and can be applied by automatic dispensing, screen printing, or hand probe. It provides a typical viscosity of 7,000 mPa·s at 25°C and a two-day work life at 25°C. Guideline heat-cure options include 6 hours at 65°C or 30 minutes at 150°C, while typical cured properties include thermal conductivity of 0.7 W/(m·K), volume resistivity of 2 × 1013 ohm-cm, and a glass-transition temperature of 85°C.

Key features

  • Low-temperature die-attach cure: An alternative guideline cure schedule of 6 hours at 65°C supports assemblies requiring reduced cure temperature.
  • Electrically insulating: Typical cured volume resistivity is 2 × 1013 ohm-cm, with a dielectric constant of 4.3 at 1 kHz.
  • Flexible application methods: Suitable for automatic dispensing, screen printing, and hand-probe application.

Applications / Suitable for

  • Die-attach applications
  • Assemblies requiring lower-temperature heat cure
  • Automatic dispensing
  • Screen-printing and hand-probe application

Work life @25°C
Work life is the amount of time we have to work with a material until it is no longer able to be easily worked and applied on a substrate. It is based on the change in viscosity and it can rely on the application requirements.

Thermal Properties
Glass Transition Temperature (Tg)
The glass transition temperature for organic adhesives is a temperature region where the polymers change from glassy and brittle to soft and rubbery. Increasing the temperature further continues the softening process as the viscosity drops too. Temperatures between the glass transition temperature and below the decomposition point of the adhesive are the best region for bonding. The glass-transition temperature Tg of a material characterizes the range of temperatures over which this glass transition occurs.
85 °C
Thermal Conductivity
Thermal conductivity describes the ability of a material to conduct heat. It is required by power packages in order to dissipate heat and maintain stable electrical performance. Thermal conductivity units are [W/(m K)] in the SI system and [Btu/(hr ft °F)] in the Imperial system.

Electrical Properties
Volume Resistivity
Volume resistivity, also called volume resistance, bulk resistance or bulk resistivity is a thickness dependent measurement of the resistivity of a material perpendicular to the plane of the surface.

Physical Properties
Viscosity
Viscosity is a measurement of a fluid’s resistance to flow. Viscosity is commonly measured in centiPoise (cP). One cP is defined as the viscosity of water and all other viscosities are derived from this base. MPa is another common unit with a 1:1 conversion to cP. A product like honey would have a much higher viscosity -around 10,000 cPs- compared to water. As a result, honey would flow much slower out of a tipped glass than water would. The viscosity of a material can be decreased with an increase in temperature in order to better suit an application
