1. Product Overview

DOWSIL™ EA-4600 HM RTV Black UV is a one-component, neutral-cure silicone hot-melt adhesive designed for PCB system assembly. It provides instant green strength, excellent adhesion to various substrates, and long open time. The adhesive is UL 94 rated and operates within a temperature range of -45°C to 150°C (-50°F to 300°F).

Key Features:

  • Instant green strength upon dispensing
  • Neutral cure with moisture curing
  • Primerless adhesion to glass, plastics, metals, and other substrates
  • Long open time (15 minutes) and 1-day pot life at 120°C
  • UV inspection capability for quality control
  • Compatible with standard hot melt dispensing equipment

2. Applications

  • Designed for PCB system assembly
  • Forms a strong and flexible silicone adhesive upon moisture curing
  • Suitable for hot-melt dispensing systems
  • Not recommended for continuous water immersion, confined spaces, or surfaces that may bleed oils, plasticizers, or solvents
