COOLTHERM SC-6709

Main features

  • 1.0 W/(m K) Thermal Encapsulation
  • Three Hardener Options
  • 68 to 205 deg C Service Range

Product Description

CoolTherm® SC-6709 Silicone Encapsulant is a two-component, solvent-free RTV silicone system for thermally conductive potting and encapsulation. The white SC-6709 resin may be combined with CoolTherm SC-6731, CoolTherm SC-6730, or Circalok™ 6732 hardener to provide different mix ratios and room-temperature cure times. After cure, the flexible silicone provides typical thermal conductivity of 1.0 W/m·K, dielectric strength of 21.7 kV/mm, and a documented operating-temperature range from -68°C to +205°C.

Key features

  • Thermally conductive encapsulation: Provides typical cured thermal conductivity of 1.0 W/m·K using the Hot Disc Transient Method, ISO 22007-2.
  • Multiple hardener options: Compatible with CoolTherm SC-6731, CoolTherm SC-6730, and Circalok 6732 hardeners for configurable mix ratios and cure times.
  • Broad operating-temperature range: Suitable for parts and devices experiencing temperatures from -68°C to +205°C.

Applications / Suitable for

  • Thermally conductive potting and encapsulation
  • Applications requiring flexible silicone encapsulation and high-temperature service

Specific Gravity
Specific gravity (SG) is the ratio of the density of a substance to the density of a reference substance; equivalently, it is the ratio of the mass of a substance to the mass of a reference substance for the same given volume. For liquids, the reference substance is almost always water (1), while for gases, it is air (1.18) at room temperature. Specific gravity is unitless.

Physical Properties
Viscosity
Viscosity is a measurement of a fluid’s resistance to flow. Viscosity is commonly measured in centiPoise (cP). One cP is defined as the viscosity of water and all other viscosities are derived from this base. MPa is another common unit with a 1:1 conversion to cP. A product like honey would have a much higher viscosity -around 10,000 cPs- compared to water. As a result, honey would flow much slower out of a tipped glass than water would. The viscosity of a material can be decreased with an increase in temperature in order to better suit an application
