Electrolube to Showcase Specialist Resins, Thermal Interface Solutions at Electronex Australia
August 15, 2017 | ElectrolubeEstimated reading time: 1 minute

Electrolube will showcase some specialist encapsulation resin systems and thermal management materials for Australia's LED manufacturers at this year's Electronex, which will be held at the Melbourne Park Function Center in Melbourne, Australia, from September 6-7, 2017. Visitors are welcome to visit their stand (B15) for advice on their specific applications.
Electrolube’s new innovations meet the ever increasing demands of the rapidly growing LED market, to fully maximise LED performance and lifetime, and ensure the desired results for heat dissipation are achieved. New products on show will include ER2224, which provides high thermal conductivity and excellent thermal cycling performance, making it ideal for use in LED lighting units where it helps to promote heat dissipation and prolong unit service life. The thermally conductive epoxy resin system offers an improved method of cure and subsequent health and safety benefits for the user.
The tough new UR5638 polyurethane resin provides a clear, transparent finish and is a low exotherm resin, making it ideal for LED applications involving the encapsulation of larger LED lighting units. As an aliphatic polymer, the resin also offers superior UV stability as well as excellent transmission of visible light, making it an excellent resin for white light LEDs.
UR5639 has been designed to encapsulate a variety of electrical components, but is particularly suited to LEDs. UR5639 is a clear/transparent polyurethane resin featuring low exotherm, low viscosity, low hardness and high flexibility. The level of flexibility achieved by the cured resin means that the connecting legs of components are not placed under high levels of stress during the cure.
Electrolube will also launch two new silicone-free thermally conductive phase change materials. TPM350 provides low thermal resistance, excellent reliability and is exceptionally easy to apply. The material is similar to grease but the consistency eliminates pump-out and is also dry to the touch, which is particularly useful for pre-apply applications. The TPM550 material features high thermal conductivity of 5.5 W/m.K and becomes workable at approximately 45°C. Its advanced formulation ensures minimal contact thermal resistance and flow is completely contained to defined interfaces due to its thixotropic characteristics.

Elementary, Mr. Watson: Why Your PCB Looks Like a Studio Apartment
08/13/2025 | John Watson -- Column: Elementary, Mr. WatsonIn November 2022, I wrote a column called "Is Your Bathroom in the Kitchen?" This piece related a bizarre real estate listing that emerged out of St. Louis that had architects scratching their heads and interior designers cringing. Nestled in the historic Central West End sat a 200-square-foot apartment that completely defied logic. It wasn't the size that raised eyebrows, it was the layout. Here's the kicker: While that's rare in real estate, it's shockingly common in PCB design.
From Factory Floor to ‘The Component Store’
07/25/2025 | Marcy LaRont, I-Connect007Daniel Beauvois began his career in PCB manufacturing 15 years ago with zero industry experience—just a willingness to learn. Daniel immersed himself in every step of circuit board production, from hanging out on the factory floor to giving plant tours. Now, as founder of The Component Store, he’s an independent sales rep known for integrity, persistence, and deep technical knowledge. In this interview, Daniel reflects on his journey, the realities of being an outside rep, and what it takes to earn—and keep—a customer’s trust in an ever-evolving electronics industry.
