DescriptionFlexible conductive adhesive for substitution of lead-free solders on PCBs
FlexAd project aims to develop new flexible electrically conductive adhesive (ECA) intended to be a substitute for lead-free solder. This new adhesive will be based on an epoxy-compound containing different nano-materials (carbon nano-fibers and other nano-particles). The challenge is to obtain high electrical conductive adhesive while maintaining high-elongation before rupture and flexibility to have good mechanical behaviour in thermo-mechanical fatigue.
