Abstract: Provided are methods of forming thermally conductive flexible bonds for use in electronic boards of unmanned spacecraft and other types of aircraft. Also provided are methods of preparing adhesive materials to form these bonds including methods of preparing treated filler particles. In some aspects, an adhesive material includes filler particles having organofunctional groups, such as boron nitride particles treated in silane. These particles may be combined with a urethane modified epoxy to form the adhesive material. The weight ratio of the particles in the adhesive material may be about 40-60%. The adhesive material may be thermally cured using a temperature of less than 110° C. to prevent damage to bonded electronic components. The cured adhesive may have a thermal conductivity of at least about 2 W/m K measured in vacuum and may have a glass transition temperature if less than ?40° C.

Abstract: The present disclosure is generally directed to electrically conductive adhesives. More particularly, the disclosure is directed to electrically conductive adhesives comprising an organic polymer resin and an electrically conductive polymer. Advantageously, the electrically conductive adhesives have low RF loss, and are thus suitable for use in a space radar antenna and in other antenna applications where antenna components are in the RF field of view.
