Provider of a variety of materials that offer environmental protection, extend service life and improve light performance, Techsil, supplies high performance LED chip packaging encapsulants, potting materials, thermal management solutions, and adhesives to bond lighting assemblies. Product chemistries include silicones, polyurethanes, epoxies, greases and pressure sensitive tapes.

Techsil's latest product is PU23955 – a new pearl PU resin used to encapsulate electronic devices containing LEDs.
