With over 150 combined years of polymer expertise, MicroCoat has developed unquestionably the finest fine-line no-bleed conductive adhesives and "sintered" silver adhesives with a TC of >150W/mK. Our nonconductive sealing adhesives have passed MSL1 testing for many companies. The Company ships several thousand syringes each month of conductive and non-conductive die attach adhesives, globtop, dam, and fill formulations for semiconductor assemblies and MCM's worldwide. MicroCoat's "B" staged conductive and non-conductive films and liquids are used extensively for both die attach and package sealing

MCT 34T71ND-2 v.072720.06
A Single Component, Toughened, Microelectronic Grade Package Sealant with a Service Temperature of <-55 oC to Over >300°C and Meets NASA Low Outgassing Specifications
MicroCoat MCT 34T71ND-2 features a unique blend of performance properties including both high shear and peel strengths along with convenient handling and high/low temp properties allowing it to be easily rated MSL1. This extremely low moisture absorption adhesive has passed >1 year at 30oC/85%RH and can be used in MSL1 packaging. A Military and Medical Microelectronic sealing adhesive, MCT 34T71ND-2 is a 100% solids one part nonconductive thermosetting conductive adhesive designed primarily for sealing packages with mismatched thermal expansions in Military, Medical, “down-hole” hybrids, optoelectronics, automotive sensors, and all LCP packages, etc. Medical Application: There are no ingredients present in this formulation that has caused a failure in cytotoxicity or USP VI testing in any previous evaluations. ISO 13485 does not exclude materials unless the company specifically designs it to in which case we would need to know more about the design of your quality system. A much improved higher temperature resistant material. This is a one-component system formulated to cure at elevated temperatures that will withstand 85/85 for >3500 hours
MCT 34T71ND-2 has several outstanding processing advantages:
- No mixing is necessary before use
- This material is “Pre-mixed and Frozen”
- The viscosity remains constant with time (i.e. it will not thicken over time)
- Working life is unlimited* at room temperature, and the material is room temperature storable* for 1 month
- No cleanup required in-between shifts
OPTICALLY CLEAR GLOB TOPS
MCT 306-21
Clear Silicone Coating/Globtop
MCT 306-21 is a flexible, re-workable, non-conductive, silicone-based coating. The overall Ωbalance of peel strength, cohesion, and high temperature holding power provides a versatility that makes this product useful in a wide range of coating and bonding applications. This product is very resistant to flexing and creasing. Some applications for MCT 306-21 include, but are not limited to, coating for polyimide flexible circuits, polymer thick film circuitry, and semiconductor glob-top or MCM fill and attachments for stress-sensitive devices. 126-03 is one of the few non-conductive coatings that can bond/adhere to silicone substrates and surfaces. In addition, it can be bonded to some types of Teflon® surfaces and rubber surfaces. MCT 306-21 is optimized for syringe dispense, dipping, and spraying. The last two methods require some dilution

UV CURE LOW TEMPERATURE GLASS REPLACEMENT FOR HYBRID CIRCUITS
MCT 3450-4B or G
UV Cure Epoxy Hybrid Circuit Protective Overcoat
MicroCoat Technologies 3450-4B or, G is a 100% solids UV cure epoxy protective overcoat for thick and thin film hybrid circuits. It is a screen printable protective coating with fast throughput, safety, and the environment in mind. Developed for overcoating very tightly trimmed thick or thin film resistors after trim so that there is no shift in resistor tolerance - NONE This chemical resistant epoxy formulation has been used to replace heat cure blue epoxy overcoats for hybrid circuits and chip resistors that require plating as well. The 3450-4 has a latent heat catalyst that cures the coating to a hard surface with the heat generated from the UV source. Good results have also been obtained using this material as a dielectric for polymer thick film resistor circuitry on PCB and flex materials. This material may be screen-printed on alumina, BeO, AlN, gold and palladium plated substrates including lead frames, standard thick film printed circuitry, or PCB substrates with excellent results. Its viscosity lends itself to self-leveling and may be adjusted for specific applications. The cured film is extremely tough, offers protection from thermal shock, moisture, abrasion, oxidation, and corrosion of certain conductive compositions, and may decrease the chance of silver migration in certain instances
