Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of electrical component packaging materials, and in particular to a one-component epoxy adhesive for thermal components and its preparation and application method. Background Technology

[0002] Both PPTC and PTC are positive temperature coefficient thermistors, but the difference lies in their operating conditions: PPTC operates with high current and low voltage, while PTC operates with low current and high voltage. PTC is a new type of overcurrent and overtemperature protection device, essentially a resettable fuse, providing overcurrent and overtemperature protection. Based on manufacturing materials, it can be divided into organic polymer PPTC and ceramic PTC. In contrast to PTC, NTC thermistors have resistance that decreases with increasing temperature and can be used for surge suppression and temperature measurement.

[0003] To protect thermal components, adhesives are needed to provide waterproofing and insulation. However, existing adhesives are not heat-resistant and are prone to cracking after reflow soldering (240-260℃ for 10 minutes). They fail to provide adequate waterproofing and insulation, leading to the failure of thermal components and consequently increasing the risk of electronic product malfunctions.

[0004] Chinese patent "Epoxy Acrylic Polymer Mixture for NTC Temperature Sensor Encapsulation and its Preparation Process" (Publication No.: CN121203352A) discloses an epoxy acrylate polymer mixture that enables the temperature sensor to withstand temperatures up to 200°C. The resin encapsulates the sensor through a multi-stage curing process involving UV curing and thermal curing. However, the high-temperature resistance of the encapsulation layer is not ideal, and the curing process is complex. Summary of the Invention
