Abstract: A surgical instrument (10) includes a housing (20) defining a longitudinal axis and a first assembly (200) and a second assembly (300) operably coupled to the housing (20). The first assembly (200) includes a first function button (200b) pivotably coupled to the housing (20) about a first pivot (200p) and a first circuit (210) supported by the housing (20) and aligned with the first pivot (200p). The first function button (200b) includes a first arm (201) on a first side of the first pivot (200p) and a second arm (202) on a second side of the first pivot (200p). The first circuit (210) is aligned with the cutting picot between the first arm (201) and the second arm (202) and includes a first actuator (211) on the first side of the first pivot (200p) and a second actuator (212) on the second side of the first pivot (200p).

Abstract: A thermally-conductive and electrically-insulating composite composition is provided. The composite composition includes an epoxy resin and a filler. The epoxy resin has at least two epoxide groups per molecule, and a reactive diluent. The composite composition includes about 5 volume percent to about 20 volume percent of the filler, based on the total volume of the composite composition. An electrical component having a coating of the composite composition is also provided.
