1. Product Overview

DOWSIL™ 3-4155 HV is a two-part, soft, transparent green dielectric gel with 1:1 mix ratio and high viscosity. It cures quickly at room temperature without ovens and remains flexible in extreme low temperatures down to -80°C, while maintaining stability up to 200°C. Its soft, self-healing nature provides stress relief and insulation, making it well-suited for delicate electronics exposed to harsh environments. Blue and yellow parts mix to green, ensuring blending accuracy.


2. Applications

  • Encapsulation of PCB assemblies operating under very low temperatures.

  • Stress relief for components with CTE mismatch during thermal cycling.

  • Electrical insulation for high-voltage circuits.

  • Moisture and contaminant protection for sensitive devices.

  • Optoelectronic applications requiring stable refractive index.

  • Thick-layer encapsulation of high-architecture designs.

  • Reworkable systems where repair and patching may be needed.
