Silicone OCA
A silicone Optical Clear Adhesive (OCA) that fills air gaps between components in LCD displays, improving brightness and contrast. It is highly resistant to yellowing and shows excellent long-term performance. We sell OPT Alpha GEL in sheets, making it both easy to handle and highly reworkable.
- Characteristics
- ●Made of high-grade silicone, this OCA boasts superior physical properties, providing stable performance.
- ●OPT Alpha GEL shows minimal yellowing when exposed to heat and UV radiation. It has low temperature dependence, allowing OPT Alpha GEL to thrive at a wide range of temperatures.
- ●OPT Alpha GEL retains elasticity and reduces stress on display components. This contributes to a more uniform displayed image and improved shock resistance.
- ●Displays can be reworked after bonding with OPT Alpha GEL, improving yields and reducing cost.
- ●OPT Alpha GEL is available in thicknesses between 0.175 mm and 1.8 mm.
- ●The maximum width of OPT Alpha GEL is by 1,500mm. It is suitable for large scale display.
- Application Example
- Inserting OPT Alpha GEL between an LCD unit and the cover lens has many benefits, such as improved shock resistance, stress mitigation, increased contrast, reduced parallax, and improved luminance.
