Hot Melt Molding Case Study: "Sealing of IC Tags"
Introducing a case where low melting viscosity hot melt was used for sealing IC tags.
Hot melt molding is a molding technology that involves injecting a solvent-free, one-component thermoplastic hot melt adhesive into a mold at low pressure. This method is widely used for purposes such as dustproofing, waterproofing, vibration resistance, shock resistance, insulation, and housing functionality. Matsumoto Processing Co., Ltd. has responded to the request to encapsulate IC tags (fine wire coils) using resin molding. [Challenges] - IC tags that are coiled into an antenna shape. - While wanting to encapsulate them with resin molding, bending of the coil leads to wire breakage, making commercialization impossible. [Effects] - A hot melt with low melting viscosity is used (1,900 m·Pa·s). - By molding at an extremely low pressure of 0.5 MPa, encapsulation was achieved without damaging the coil. *For more details, please refer to the catalog or feel free to contact us.

Hot melt molding for waterproofing, dustproofing, and miniaturization of M2M/IOT sensors.
Our company specializes in hot melt technology, specifically "hot melt molding," which is used for low-pressure molding to seal electronic devices. In recent years, we have received a significant number of inquiries for M2M/IOT applications, particularly for sensors installed outdoors and those used in harsh environments, aimed at waterproofing, dustproofing, and insulation. Examples of inquiries: - Sensors for agricultural applications (soil sensors, livestock management sensors) - Sensors for building management - Sensors for monitoring the operational status of outdoor equipment (such as outdoor units) - Drones, etc. Why is hot melt molding gaining attention? - It can mold at low pressure, allowing for sealing even delicate sensors. - Extensive waterproofing and dustproofing experience cultivated through automotive components. - The hot melt used is flame-retardant and UL94 V-0 certified. - The raw materials are derived from natural components (non-petroleum-based) and are environmentally friendly. Matsumoto Processing also accommodates small-batch sealing through a contract production system. Customers with themes related to waterproofing and dustproofing for sensors are encouraged to inquire.
