Product Description

Bostik Thermelt 861 Black is a non-reactive, solvent-free polyamide hot melt resin specially designed for low-pressure molding applications. It is widely used for molding electronic and electrical components, connectors, and cables due to its excellent adhesion, low processing temperature, and high flexibility. The material complies with UL94 V-0 flame resistance (UL file E116659), making it ideal for applications requiring fire retardancy and environmental durability.

Key Features

  • Designed for low-pressure molding applications
  • Flame retardant (UL94 V-0 certified)
  • High flexibility and adhesion to various substrates
  • Solvent-free, non-reactive formulation
  • Moisture-resistant with low water absorption

Recommended Applications

  • Encapsulation of electronic/electric components
  • Molding of connectors and cables
  • Industrial applications requiring durable and flame-resistant materials
