HONG YE SILICONE Electronic Potting Silicone for Wave Energy Converters is a high-performance two-component Addition Curing Silicone, also known as Electronic Potting Compound, Silicone Encapsulant and electronic potting gel, tailored for wave energy converters. Crafted from high-purity Silicone raw materials, it integrates excellent waterproof, moisture-proof, thermal conductivity, flame retardancy and insulation, cures into a solid protective layer after adding curing agent. With strong adhesion to PC, PMMA, PCB and metals (aluminum, copper, stainless steel), it resists seawater corrosion and wind-wave impact, protects core components, ensures stable operation in marine environments, and has customizable parameters to meet global wave energy equipment procurement demands.
Product Overview
Our Electronic Potting Silicone is specialized for wave energy converters, designed for encapsulation, sealing, filling and pressure protection of their core electronic components, control modules and power generation units. As a leading manufacturer of liquid silicone and addition curing silicone, we optimize the formula for marine environment adaptability, enhancing seawater corrosion resistance and anti-vibration performance. It outperforms epoxy potting resin in flexibility and weather resistance, cures at room or elevated temperatures, and ensures reliable protection for wave energy converter components, extending product service life and reducing marine maintenance costs for renewable energy manufacturers.
Key Features & Advantages
- Superior Marine Environment Adaptability: Excellent waterproof, moisture-proof and anti-corrosion performance, resisting seawater erosion, ozone and chemical substances, adapting to harsh marine and offshore working conditions.
- Wide Temperature & Anti-Vibration Performance: Operates stably from -60℃ to 220℃, withstanding extreme temperature changes and wind-wave impact, absorbing internal stress caused by temperature cycles and vibration to protect components.
- High Insulation & Flame Retardancy: Excellent insulation performance, isolating circuits and preventing short circuits caused by seawater or moisture; flame-retardant design enhances equipment safety in marine environments.
- Low Volatility & Strong Adhesion: Ultra-low volatile content, no harmful substances released; strong adhesion to PC, PMMA, PCB and various metals, ensuring tight sealing and no peeling in long-term marine operation.
- Flexible Curing & Customizability: Addition-curing formula, supporting room-temperature or heated curing (full curing in 24 hours); as a professional Silicone Potting Compound manufacturer, we can customize hardness, viscosity and operation time to match different wave energy converter models.
How to Use
- Pre-Mix Preparation: Thoroughly stir Component A to evenly distribute settled fillers, and shake Component B vigorously to ensure uniformity, avoiding stratification which affects adhesion and corrosion resistance.
- Precision Mixing: Strictly follow the recommended weight ratio of Component A to B, stirring slowly and evenly for 2-3 minutes to avoid introducing air bubbles that affect sealing performance.
- Degassing: After mixing, place the adhesive in a vacuum container at 0.01MPa for 3 minutes to eliminate air bubbles, ensuring full penetration into tiny gaps of wave energy converter components.
- Curing: Pour the degassed mixture into component housings; cure at room temperature or heated to accelerate, enter the next process after basic curing, and ensure 24 hours full curing. Note: Environment temperature and humidity have a significant impact on curing speed.
