Pens dispense without a squeeze
Fisnar Flow-Seal pens from Intertronics allow the controlled application of both water and alcohol-based products including no-clean liquid fluxes, RMA liquid fluxes and solvents.
Its low stress characteristics also make it suitable for use with large dies.
MD-140 was developed for use in high-speed automated die assembly where dispensing precision and accuracy are vital.
It can be used with time/pressure, positive displacement or linear dispense heads.
Its thermal conductivity is typically three times greater than competitive silver-filled materials at 13W/mK.
Dispensing is recommended using 14 to 23 gauge needles.
The material shows excellent adhesion to a wide variety of surfaces including silicon, silver, gold and copper and can be cured in ten minutes at 150 to 180C.
It has a long pot life and can be used up to 72h after loading the syringe into the dispensing equipment.
