Abstract:
A thermal transfer adhesive composition which is applied after electronic components have been installed on a printed wiring board, comprising:
(a) 30 to 70 weight percent of an aliphatic diisocyanate or triisocyanate prepolymer;
(b) 5 to 15 weight percent of a polyether diol or triol;
(c) 20 to 40 weight percent of castor oil;
(d) 5 to 20 weight percent of an epoxy resin containing 2 or more hydroxyl group;
(e) 0. 006 to 0. 008 weight percent of a catalyst for the reaction of isocyanate groups with hydroxyl groups. The cured product is hydrolytically stable at 185. degree. F. and 95 percent relative humidity and has a good storage life when frozen. Alternatively, the composition may also include a pigment.
