  • Blue and Gold Colors
  • Halogen-free Epoxy Coating Powder
  • For class 2 & 3 capacitors and varistors

Product Description

LINQSOL™ GCP1805 is an insulating epoxy coating powder for capacitors, varistors and other passive components.  It was designed specifically as a halogen-free version of DK18-05 with similar technical specifications, just without containing any of the halogens.

LINQSOL GCP-1805 epoxy coating powders can be applied through a fluidized bed with temperatures as low as 105°C.

LINQSOL™ GCP1805 can be used for most class 2 & 3 ceramic capacitors and varistors. Its excellent curing conditions make the epoxy coating powder also very suitable for tantalum capacitors and other temperature-sensitive devices.

LINQSOL™ GCP1805 epoxy coating powders are laser markable and are rated with a UL 94 V-0 flammability and RTI rating of 130°C.

 

Used for insulation & coating of:

  • Class 2 & 3 ceramic capacitors and varistors
  • Tantalum capacitors
  • Resistors
  • Passive components
  • Temperature sensitive devices

Specific Gravity
Specific Gravity
Specific gravity (SG) is the ratio of the density of a substance to the density of a reference substance; equivalently, it is the ratio of the mass of a substance to the mass of a reference substance for the same given volume.

For liquids, the reference substance is almost always water (1), while for gases, it is air (1.18) at room temperature. Specific gravity is unitless.

Shelf Life
Shelf Life
Shelf life is the amount of time after manufacturing that a product is guaranteed to retain its properties.

It differs vastly per product and it is based on temperature and storage conditions.

The properties can be guaranteed for the temperature and time range indicated on the TDS since those are the ones tested to be the best for the product.

Thermal Properties
Glass Plate Flow
Glass Plate Flow @ 150°C
Glass Plate Flow @ 150°C
Glass plate flow determines the flow distance of thermosetting epoxies, resins or coating powders on a smooth inclined glass surface in a certain time and temperature.

This value is the distance in millimetres from the upper point of the original position of the pellet to the point of extreme flow.
 25 - 35 mm
Glass Transition Temperature (Tg)
Glass Transition Temperature (Tg)
The glass transition temperature for organic adhesives is a temperature region where the polymers change from glassy and brittle to soft and rubbery. Increasing the temperature further continues the softening process as the viscosity drops too. Temperatures between the glass transition temperature and below the decomposition point of the adhesive are the best region for bonding.

The glass-transition temperature Tg of a material characterizes the range of temperatures over which this glass transition occurs.

Additional Information

The following table shows the comparison of GCP1805 compared to DK18-05.

alt

It could be seen from the table that the properties of GCP1805 are quite similar to DK18-05. The important features are the optimized pickup temperature and the low cure temperatures as low as 110°C. GCP1805 is expected to have a similar coating performance as DK18-05. It is suggested to coat GCP1805 powder for your passive components under the same preheating and curing conditions for DK18-05. Based on the trial results, the coating process could be further adjusted and optimized.
