Technical Tips – Henkel nomenclature

CORPORATE Product Acronyms

Struggling to understand the Acronyms used on or around Henkel products? Take a look at the table below for a list of different acronyms alongside an explanation as to what they mean.

AcronymExplanation
ABPAblestik ABP stands for “Advanced Bonding Paste.” This type of adhesive is designed for high-performance die-attach applications, offering excellent thermal and electrical conductivity.
(BE)Made in Belgium, dropped in favour of W1 during renaming in 2012-15.
CAAblestik CA = Conductive Adhesive.
CEAblestik CE = Conductive Epoxy.
CTECoefficient of Thermal Expansion – measures how much a material changes in size due to temperature changes.
ECFAblestik ECF = Electrically Conductive Film.
FTThe “FT” in Stycast 2850FT stands for “Filled thermally.”
GTThe “GT” in Stycast 2850GT stands for “Gritty Thermally conductive.” It contains hard and gritty fillers that enhance its thermal conductivity and mechanical properties.
ICPThe “ICP” in Ablestik ICP stands for “Isotropic Conductive Paste.” This type of adhesive provides electrical conductivity in all directions, making it suitable for applications such as surface-mount technology (SMT) assembly and die-attach processes.
KTThe “KT” in Stycast 2850KT stands for “Kool Thermally conductive.” This product is a two- component, room temperature curing epoxy encapsulant designed for high-voltage components and replacing heat sinks.
LMIAblestik 84-1 LMI stands for “Low Mobile Ion,” indicating that the adhesive is designed to minimize the presence of mobile ions, which can be crucial for maintaining the reliability and performance of electronic components.
MMThis indicates that the product is designed to be used with meter/mix dispensing equipment.
MTThe “MT” in Stycast 2850MT stands for “Medium Thermally conductive.
PCThe “PC” in Stycast PC stands for “Printed Circuit.” This indicates that the product is designed for use with printed circuit boards (PCBs), providing environmental and mechanical protection through conformal coatings.
QMIThe “QMI” in Ablestik QMI stands for “Quartz Micro-Insulated.” This indicates that the adhesive is designed with quartz fillers to provide excellent thermal and electrical conductivity.
SIStycast 1090 SI stands for “Syntactic Insulating.” This product is a lightweight syntactic encapsulant designed for applications where high compressive stress is applied to encapsulated circuitry, such as in deep ocean work.
W1The first formulation of this product to be made in Westerlo, Belgium. Mainly used in the European markets. This arises from REACH and RoHS regulations which meant Henkel had to reformulate some materials made elsewhere (USA/Asia) to prevent them from being excluded in Europe.
WLVThis stands for “Wafer Level Version,” indicating that the adhesive is optimized for wafer- level applications.
