SK Resins engaged on the development of light curable adhesives and coatings and manufacture them in the US.
Benefits of our products are:
Instant curing (in few seconds) under UV or LED lights, meaning that it doesn’t go through the thermal curing process. This eventually reduces the assembly space, time and overall production cost.
Moreover, our materials are totally inert in the absence of light, hence the curable parts can be aligned perfectly before curing. This results in a very accurate, in-line inspection in the assembly and end use applications.
In addition, our product is 100% solid which means all the material used will be reacted completely which reduces hazardous wastes, eliminates health related issues, regulatory as well as disposal expenses.
Upon request, we can develop products for inspection of the curing process. In this process, the color of the adhesives will change into other colors after the curing process has been completed. This ensures the completion of the curing process.
The viscosity of our products can be adjusted from thin to thick, or even in a paste form, if necessary, so that customers do not need to reformulate.
The main concerns with electronic components (such as PCB) are that it contains shadowed area where light can’t be penetrated. In such cases, light curing mechanism will not work in shadowed area, leaving behind uncured coating remains in shadow area. Under such conditions, dual cure coatings are employed. Dual cure coatings cure materials in both light as well as shadow area via moisture or heat as secondary cure. Engineers at SK Resins, have come up with products that overcome these issues. Our special products cure not only in light, but also cures by moisture and heat. Some customers specifically request for light/heat curing and some customers request us for light/moisture curing products in order to improve the physical and mechanical properties of their products. We provide the right adhesives and coatings to meet their needs.
We are currently serving automobile electronics and cosmetic (gel nail polish) industries. However, upon a specific interest from our customers, we developed our adhesive and coating products for other market segments such as aerospace, medical, optical and consumer market.
UV/LED and Visible light-curable adhesives and coatings for automotive applications bring a significant reduction in overall manufacturing costs and they outperform conventional room temperature and heat cure adhesives. Our in-house developed adhesives and coatings produce components that are more durable for electronics, trim components and bring unique properties such as brighter headlamps, superior sound systems, stronger glass assemblies and noiseless motors for automobiles.
SK Resins-USA custom formulates products to meet individual design specifications. SK Resins-USA products are, either in liquid or paste form, yet free from VOC (100% solid). They cure ONLY upon exposure to light. With the consideration of easy assembly of automotive parts, our adhesives and coatings are packed in such a way that these are easy to handle and designed to be conveniently integrated into assembly lines. Our adhesives do not cure until the precise alignment of parts in the assembly line is complete. Once aligned, they cure rapidly upon exposure to light.
The advantages of light-curable adhesives and coatings are that they eliminate the conventional assembly line process that consumes space and reduce the overall production cost.
Our light-curable automobile adhesives and coatings are superior in terms of performance, meet customers' specifications yet are cost-effective compared to other light curable adhesives and coatings in the market. Most of our adhesives and coatings are halogen-free.
The key application area for automotive electronics are :
SK Resins-USA camera module assembly products are one-part, solvent-free which cure in a few seconds upon exposure to UV/LED/Visible lights. Our adhesives bond strongly onto the substrates that are used on camera module. Most of our camera module adhesives and coatings are halogen-free.
Several years back ADAS was considered a luxury and only high-end cars had such options. But now ADAS is considered to be a standard feature in almost all vehicles including commercial vehicles. ADAS helps the driver to drive safely by notifying of dangers in advance making them one of the key components in automobiles. The designing and making of ADAS has a lot of technical challenges. ADAS in the car should be protected well from corrosion by salt, chemicals, SOX/NOX, thermal shock, moisture, etc. We have done extensive research and design on innovative formulations for the automobile industry that bring excellent solutions for ADAS. SK Resins-USA has a comprehensive portfolio of ADAS material solutions that are integral to cameras and radars, electric power steering assistance, electric braking systems, control units, and connectivity modules. Our products for ADAS range from dual-cure encapsulants/wire bonding adhesives to camera module adhesives and potting compounds. Most of our ADAS adhesives and coatings are halogen-free.
The automotive infotainment system integrates the navigation and entertainment components and controls the automobiles' audio/video devices and panel displays. The electronic circuit board (PCB) plays a key role in maintaining the infotainment system. Therefore, protecting PCB in infotainment system against thermal shock, heat, humidity, and various corrosive elements is very essential. SK Resins-USA has solutions to provide automobile manufacturers with exceptionally high-quality encapsulants, maskants, and conformal coatings to ensure reliable yet durable infotainment systems in the vehicle. Like our other UV/Visible light-curable products, the products used in infotainment systems is one part solvent free, also cures in seconds when exposed to light that increases the product throughput and cost savings. Our dual-cure formula cures in shadowed areas where light can't penetrate. Most of our infotainment adhesives and coatings are halogen-free.
Conformal coatings for electronics applications are very important to protect the printed circuit boards (PCB) from thermal shock, vibration, and corrosion by chemicals and moisture. SK Resins-USA provide more than ten different conformal coatings with various viscosity range. All our coatings are one part system and they cure in seconds upon exposure to light and even in shadowed areas where light can't penetrate. Low viscosity and fast curing adhesives help manufacturers to quickly dispense, apply and cure to obtain a protective strong bonded protection on PCB. Since our conformal coatings cure into a solid tack-free layer, the finished components can be stored or transported immediately. This will minimize the time that is otherwise needed for conventional room-temperature and thermal-cure products. Most of our conformal coatings are halogen-free.
The battery system is the heart of the electric vehicle, hence protecting it from severe environment changes including heat, shock, vibration, corrosion from chemicals, salts, moisture is very critical. This can be achieved by choosing the right material to position, bond, seal, and coat strongly on to various substrates. At SK Resins-USA, we have engineered and developed UV/Visible light-curable adhesives and coatings that exceed the standard specifications needed for EV battery components bonding.
SK Resins-USA provide several adhesives with various viscosity range. All our coatings are one part system and they cure in seconds in the presence of light and even in shadowed areas where light can't penetrate. Low viscosity and fast curing adhesives help manufacturers to quickly dispense, apply and cure to obtain a protective strong bonding of battery. Since our adhesives cure into a solid tack-free layer, the finished EV battery components can be stored or transported immediately. This will minimize the time that is otherwise needed for conventional room-temperature and thermal-cure products. Most of our adhesives and coatings are halogen-free.
Consumer electronics or home electronics are analog or digital components that are designed to use for everyday life. Consumer electronics are used in entertainment as well as communication devices. Entertainment systems including TVs, DVD players, video games and remote control cars, etc. and communications equipment including telephones, cell phones, laptops, printers, etc. are running mainly based on the electronic components present in the system. Therefore, protecting them from severe environment changes including heat, shock, vibration, corrosion from chemicals, salts and moisture is very critical. This can be achieved by choosing the right material to position, bond, seal and coat strongly on to various substrates.
