Nanotechnological developments figure prominently when it comes to the electronics industry. The opportunity for improved functionality and performance while simultaneously reducing size and weight make such technologies ideal for the highly demanding uses of electronic applications. Master Bond offers a top notch line of adhesive formulations custom formulated to meet the rising demands of this industry.
Master Bond Inc. provides the adhesive systems required for specific nanoelectronic applications. For example, adhesive to be employed in thermomechanical applications will require a high coefficient of thermal expansion and heat resistant properties in order to resist the standard temperature differentials which accompany such processes. Additionally, depending on the specific use, any system to be employed with SMT applications will most likely require either a low shrink grade, electrically and thermally conductive grade, thermally insulating grade, or a low outgassing grade solution, all some of the many characteristics which Master Bond formulations offer.
The future impact of nanotechnology on electronic memory storage is incalculable. One promising example, a novel application of nanoengineering currently in development promises to replace the standard hard drive with greater data density in a smaller area, yielding unimaginable benefits in a wide range of applications. The developed product has the potential to revolutionize current standards for electronic memory storage, presenting the world with a faster, yet miniaturized version than presently available. In recognition of all the potential which awaits in the realms of nanoelectronic development, Master Bond is at the forefront of technologically advanced adhesive solutions formulated for high quality performance.
