Abstract: An adhesive composition comprising: (i) a one part curable epoxy adhesive and (ii) a low profile additive (LPA), the low profile additive being a polymer that is compatible with the epoxy adhesive such that it forms a single phase when admixed with the adhesive composition and that separates from the adhesive to form a network of stress-absorbing nodules therein when the adhesive is cured, the low profile additive being present in an amount sufficient to prevent or reduce shrinkage and/or the formation of voids or cracks when the adhesive is cured. In one embodiment the LPA is a block copolymer including at least one flexible block and at least one rigid block that makes the low profile additive compatible with the epoxy adhesive such that a mixture of the uncured epoxy resin and the low profile additive forms a homogenous solution and as the epoxy resin is cured, the low profile additive forms a stress absorbing network of nodules in the cured epoxy resin matrix.
Abstract: A curing agent for epoxy resins that is comprised of the reaction product of an amine, an epoxy resin, and an elastomer-epoxy adduct; compositions containing the curing agent and an epoxy resin; the compositions are useful in electronic displays, circuit boards, semi conductor devices, flip chips and other applications.

Abstract: An epoxy composition for applications such as one-part adhesives, coatings, prepreg and molding compounds that includes leuco dyes, particularly those comprising a N,N-dialkylamino-, N,N-diarylamino-, N-alkyl-N-arylamino-, N-alkylamino- or N-arylamino- functional group on one of the aromatic rings, as a co- catalyst or co-curing agent. The use of the leuco dye co-catalyst provides improved curing speed of the epoxy composition comprising a latent curing agent/catalyst such as imidazole microcapsules while maintaining the shelf-life stability. The epoxy may also include a secondary co-catalyst that includes a urea, particularly those comprising a N,N-dialkylamino-, N,N-diarylamino-, N-alkyl-N-arylamino- or dicycloalkylamino- functional group. Secondary cocatalysts of low mobility at the storage conditions are particularly preferred.
Abstract: Structures and manufacturing processes of an ACF array using a non-random array of microcavities of predetermined configuration, shape and dimension. The manufacturing process includes fluidic filling of conductive particles onto a substrate or carrier web comprising a predetermined array of microcavities, or selective metallization of the array followed by filling the array with a filler material and a second selective metallization on the filled microcavity array. The thus prepared filled conductive microcavity array is then over-coated or laminated with an adhesive film. Cavities in the array, and particles filling the cavities, can have a unimodal, bimodal, or multimodal distribution.
Abstract: The invention provides an improvement to the useable lifetimes of phenolic-epoxy, phenolic-benzoxazine, phenolic-epoxy-benzoxazine mixtures and other phenolic mixtures through the use of protected phenolics, where a phenolic compound, polymer, or resin is released on demand by the addition of a deblocking agent.
