Product Description

LOCTITE ABLESTIK NCA 2286 dual cure acrylic adhesive is designed for use in active alignment applications in camera module assembly. It has been formulated to a high viscosity and thixotropy to enable higher aspect ratios of dispensed adhesive, thus allowing for easier adjustments for the final assembly. This material jas a very high dispense aspect ration and is engineered to meet the high reliability performance requirements for the optoelectronic / semiconductor industry.

LOCTITE ABLESTIK NCA 2286 is black in color to prevent light penetration into the final assembled device. It is designed to achieve fast cure response at low temperatures and good depth of cure after UV radiation. This product also contains a secondary thermal cure mechanism for applications with shadowed areas where light is unable to penetrate. It is a camera/sensor market material that is not expected to pass very harsh reliability requirements.

General Properties

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.
Shelf Life @ -20°C	180 days

Physical Properties

Thixotropic index

Thixotropic index
Thixotropic Index is a ratio of a material s viscosity at two different speeds in Ambient temperature, generally different by a factor of ten.

A thixotropic material s viscosity will decrease as agitation or pressure is increased. It indicates the capability of a material to hold its shape. Mayonnaise is a great example of this. It holds its shape very well, but when a shear stress is applied, the material easily spreads.

It helps in choosing a material in accordance to the application, dispense method and viscosity of a material.

Viscosity

Viscosity
Viscosity is a measurement of a fluid’s resistance to flow.

Viscosity is commonly measured in centiPoise (cP). One cP is defined as
the viscosity of water and all other viscosities are derived from this base. MPa is another common unit with a 1:1 conversion to cP.

A product like honey would have a much higher viscosity -around 10,000 cPs-
compared to water. As a result, honey would flow much slower out of a tipped glass than
water would.

The viscosity of a material can be decreased with an increase in temperature in
order to better suit an application

Mechanical Properties

Hardness Hardness Hardness is a dimensionless quantity. There is no direct relationship between measurements in one scale and their equivalent in another scale or another hardness test.

Elongation

Elongation
Elongation is the process of lengthening something.

It is a percentage that measures the initial, unstressed, length compared to the length of the material right before it breaks.

It is commonly referred to as Ultimate Elongation or Tensile Elongation at break.

Thermal Properties

Coefficient of Thermal Expansion (CTE) Coefficient of Thermal Expansion (CTE) CTE (Coefficient of thermal expansion) is a material property that is indicative of the extent to which a material expands with a change in temperature. This can be a change in length, area or volume, depending on the material. Knowing the CTE of the layers is helpful in analyzing stresses that might occur when a system consists of an adhesive plus some other solid component.
Coefficient of Thermal Expansion (CTE), α1 Coefficient of Thermal Expansion (CTE), α1 CTE α1 (alpha 1) is the slope of the Coefficient of thermal expansion in a temperature range below the Glass transition temperature (Tg). It explains how much a material will expand until it reaches Tg.	55 ppm/°C
Coefficient of Thermal Expansion (CTE), α2 Coefficient of Thermal Expansion (CTE), α2 CTE α2 (alpha 2) is the slope of the Coefficient of thermal expansion in a temperature range above the Glass transition temperature (Tg). It explains the extent to which a material will expand after it passes Tg.	165 ppm/°C

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.
