Dexerials SC121 Flame-Retardant Adhesive is a chloroprene-rubber-based industrial bonding material developed for fixing, reinforcing, and insulating electrical and electronic components. Originally associated with Sony Chemical and now recognized under the Dexerials product heritage, SC121 is designed for applications where dependable adhesion, electrical insulation, flame-retardant performance, and convenient production handling are important. It is suitable for electronic equipment, household appliances, power assemblies, control devices, transformers, coils, wiring components, and other industrial products requiring secure component fixation.
Dexerials SC121 Flame-Retardant Adhesive provides a practical solution for securing electronic parts that may be exposed to vibration, movement, or mechanical stress during transportation and operation. By bonding components directly to circuit boards, housings, or supporting structures, the adhesive helps reduce movement that could damage solder joints, lead wires, terminals, or delicate electrical connections.
The chloroprene-rubber base provides a useful balance of adhesion and flexibility. Unlike highly rigid bonding materials, the cured adhesive layer can accommodate limited movement between joined components. This characteristic is valuable in assemblies containing metals, plastics, coated wires, and circuit-board materials that may expand or contract differently during temperature changes.
Dexerials SC121 Flame-Retardant Adhesive is intended for electronic manufacturing applications where both secure fixing and electrical protection are required. Its flame-retardant formulation makes it suitable for appliances and electrical equipment in which ordinary general-purpose adhesive may not provide the required performance.
The adhesive can help simplify component installation by reducing reliance on clips, brackets, cable ties, and other mechanical fixing methods. A properly designed adhesive joint distributes holding force over the applied area and can provide a cleaner finished appearance inside electronic products.
Dexerials SC121 Flame-Retardant Adhesive can be considered for fixing capacitors, coils, resistors, transformers, lead wires, connectors, terminals, and other components used in electrical assemblies. It may also be applied around component bases or wiring sections to provide additional reinforcement against vibration and accidental movement.
Typical industries include consumer electronics, household appliances, power supplies, audio equipment, communication devices, lighting products, industrial controls, electrical instruments, and general electronic manufacturing. The adhesive is especially useful for assemblies requiring a combination of bonding, insulation, flame resistance, and flexible component support.
Because plastics, coatings, insulation materials, and electronic substrates can vary considerably, adhesion and compatibility should be confirmed on the actual production materials. Testing is particularly important for polyethylene, polypropylene, soft PVC, solvent-sensitive plastics, painted surfaces, and components with printed markings.
Before applying the adhesive, ensure that all surfaces are clean, dry, and free from oil, dust, moisture, oxidation, release agents, and processing residue. Apply a controlled and uniform quantity to the required bonding or reinforcing area. Avoid excessive application, as unnecessary adhesive may increase drying time and create an untidy finished appearance.
Position the components according to the required assembly process and maintain suitable contact while the adhesive develops sufficient strength. Drying conditions should be selected according to the official technical instructions, applied thickness, ambient temperature, ventilation, and substrate type.
For production use, evaluate adhesion, electrical insulation, flame resistance, vibration durability, temperature cycling, and long-term environmental performance with actual components. Manufacturing trials should also confirm the required application quantity, drying period, and fixture method.
Keep the container tightly closed and store the product in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated location. Protect it from direct sunlight, excessive heat, sparks, flames, and incompatible chemicals. Review the current safety data sheet before handling, storage, transportation, or disposal.
