When electronics are 30,000 feet in the air, driving down the road at high speed, or performing vital medical diagnostics, component stability and performance are critical. Bonding strength and electrical connection matter, and Henkel ensures electronic components deliver on expectations. LOCTITE adhesives are the most trusted electronic adhesives brand worldwide – with good reason. When reliability is on the line, trust Henkel conductive and non-conductive adhesives.
Miniaturization
Electrically conductive adhesives are critical in electronics as they enable reliable connections in compact designs without the bulk and heat challenges of traditional soldering.
Reliability
Electrically conductive, non-conductive, and film adhesives are essential for mission-critical applications, as they provide robust bonding, electrical performance, and thermal management in highly demanding environments.
Large-area bonding
Film adhesives are crucial as they provide uniform thickness, consistent conductivity properties, and enhanced structural integrity across extensive surfaces.
Henkel’s LOCTITE adhesives portfolio is unmatched, spanning conductive and non-conductive formulations in paste and film formats. No application is the same, which is why Henkel offers an expansive component bonding portfolio that can meet nearly any application need, while delivering process compatibility for diverse manufacturing environments. From aerospace systems that require no-fail assembly films with high thermal and electrical performance to adhesive pastes for assemblies enduring 24/7/365 operation in industrial factories, Henkel component bonding materials get the job done.
Electronic component bonding solutions, also known as component assembly materials, are adhesives that secure components to substrates to enable these components to function and prevent unwanted movement or shifts. Electrically conductive adhesives (ECAs) are highly filled materials that enable electrical connection and offer an alternative to conventional solders. Non-conductive adhesives deliver structural integrity, insulation, and endurance to extend a product’s useful life. Finally, the epoxy based assembly films are some of the most trusted materials for high-reliability applications like aerospace, where electrical, thermal, and mechanical performance are equally critical.
There are numerous reasons a systems designer might specify adhesives in certain situations. For example, when high temperature solder processing may damage temperature-sensitive components, low temperature cure electrically conductive adhesives are the ideal solution. In aerospace electronics, which are often subjected to extremely high heat, Henkel assembly films maintain adhesion strength even at elevated operational temperatures. Diverse requirements demand diverse solutions, and Henkel’s broad portfolio of electronic component bonding materials delivers.
High electrical conductivity
Improved circuit performance through highly filled adhesives.
Increased mechanical support
Compliant interconnect for flexible circuits.
Superior EMI protection
Protects electronics from stray electro-magnetic interference.
Optimal heat management
Dissipate heat effectively, maintaining optimal operating temperatures and preventing overheating of components.
Versatile applications
Apply easily through dispensing, jetting, or printing, making them suitable for various industrial processes and environments.
Low temperature electrical interconnect
Provides lower temperature electrical connection than solder for temperature-sensitive substrates and components.
There is no substitute for bonding electronic components. They have to be secured, and they have to function at the highest levels. That’s why manufacturing professionals around the world trust Henkel. When bonds and electrical function must meet the highest reliability standards, Henkel adhesives deliver the fail-safe solution. The portfolio is expansive, and the performance is exceptional.

Henkel electrically conductive adhesives (ECAs) are a proven, high-reliability alternative to solder for applications where high-temperature processing may be challenging. Used in many of the most demanding applications like aerospace, automotive, and medical, LOCTITE ECAs are available in various chemistries, including, epoxy, acrylate, BMI, silicone and others, and offer multiple cure mechanisms.
Henkel non-conductive adhesives (NCAs) are used across industries – from medical to aerospace, telecom to industrial, and automotive to consumer electronics. These essential materials provide many important functions, such as the robust connection of sensors, grounding in hybrid packages, construction of radars and antennas, and waveguide bonding. Robust performance, exacting formulations, and exceptional processability are why Henkel NCAs are market leaders.
When mission-critical applications require the highest reliability, thermal management, electrical, and mechanical performance, system designers turn to Henkel adhesive films. Uniform, void-free bondlines ensure exceptional performance – even across large surface areas. Henkel epoxy film adhesives can be supplied in customized thicknesses and shapes, delivering precision coverage for high-complexity designs.
