UV683 Tack-Free Coating/Doming UV-Curable Adhesive, Clear
Permabond® UV683 has been developed for use as a coating. It is ideal for coating and doming applications. The optically clear / tack-free formulation also makes this product particularly suitable for coating smart card microchips amongst various other applications. Its viscosity makes it suitable for encapsulation of electronic components and its high temperature resistance allows it to resist wave-soldering.

Physical Properties of Uncured Adhesive
- Chemical composition: Acrylate
- Appearance: Colourless
- Viscosity @ 25°C: 1,000-1,600 mPa.s (cP)
- Specific gravity: 1.1
Typical Curing Properties
- Typical fixture time*
- Low power 4mW/cm2 battery lamp: 7 secs
- LED 100mW/cm2 lamp: 2 secs
- UV light guide 30W/cm2: 1 sec
- Tack free time
- Low power 4mW/cm2 battery lamp: 15 secs
- LED 100mW/cm2 lamp: 5 secs
- UV light guide 30W/cm2: 1-2 secs
- Cure wavelength: 320 - 420 nm**
*The cure time depends on the power of the UV lamp, its spectral output, the distance between the lamp and the components, and the transmission characteristics of the substrates.
**LED UV lamps have a narrow range of spectral output. It is important to check suitability with Permabond to match the LED lamp's peak wavelength with that of the adhesive's photoinitiator to ensure optimal adhesive cure.
Typical Performance of Cured Adhesive
- Tensile strength (ISO37): 12-14 N/mm2 (1700-2000 psi)
- Light transmittance: >98%
- Refractive index: >1.490
- Elongation at break (ISO37): >50%
- Hardness (ISO868): 50-65 Shore D
- Water absorption (ISO62) 2 hours in boiling water: <2%
- Glass transition (Tg) DSC 20°C/min rate: +55°C
*Strength results will vary depending on the level of surface preparation and gap.
