It can lead to a loss of performance and unreliability in certain components, which can have a negative impact on entire assemblies, devices and\/or systems. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>In order to keep outgassing in production as low as possible, certain manufacturers, such as Henkel, have special products in their range that are particularly low in outgassing and meet certain outgassing standards<\/strong><strong>.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>In the following article, we explain why outgassing should be taken seriously and which Loctite and Bergquist products from Henkel meet the NASA outgassing standard and the A<\/strong><strong>STM E595 standard.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How does outgassing occur?<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Outgassing,<\/strong> i.e. the escape of gases from solid or liquid materials, can have <strong>various causes<\/strong>. For example, outgassing can occur due to <strong>pressure relief <\/strong>. Almost all materials outgas in a vacuum. This is because gas molecules have a tendency to move from an area of high pressure towards an area of low pressure, and in a vacuum there is an extremely low pressure level.   <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Outgassing can also occur due to an <strong>increase in temperature<\/strong>, as this leads to an increase in the kinetic energy of molecules, which become more volatile as a result, which can lead to a phase change to the gaseous state, both in liquid and solid materials.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Chemical, bacterial or radioactive conversion processes<\/strong> can also lead to outgassing.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There are <strong>four different mechanisms<\/strong> that can cause <strong>outgassing<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Vaporization<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Diffusion<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Desorption<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Permeation<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Evaporation<\/strong> occurs when a liquid or solid substance changes phase at the surface into a gaseous state.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During <strong>diffusion<\/strong>, gaseous molecules in a material move from the inside to the outside.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the case of <strong>desorption<\/strong>, gas molecules are released that have accumulated on the surface, i.e. were adsorbed or absorbed.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Permeation<\/strong> is a form of outgassing in which gaseous molecules penetrate a material from the outside through the surface and then escape again at another point on the surface.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Problems due to outgassing<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Outgassing<\/strong> causes <strong>problems<\/strong> in environments where <strong>the highest purity requirements<\/strong> apply, such as in <strong>semiconductor production<\/strong>. The outgassing substances can be water vapor, oil, grease or volatile organic compounds (VOCs). In particular, environments with vacuum and\/or high temperatures pose special challenges for manufacturers of electronic devices, for example, which must also meet the highest cleanliness requirements in such environments.  <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, outgassing can also lead to contamination of the materials used in other sectors, such as the <strong>automotive industry<\/strong>, and thus to performance losses and failures in electronic devices, such as sensors or control units.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <strong>aerospace industry<\/strong> faces similar problems, as it cannot afford any loss of performance or even failures in electronic devices due to outgassing.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Measurement of outgassing<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The US space agency NASA (National Aeronautics and Space Administration) has developed <strong>a technique<\/strong> for <strong>measuring<\/strong> <strong>outgassing<\/strong> due to the major challenges associated with it. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.astm.org\/e0595-15r21.html\"><strong>ASTM E595 standard<\/strong><\/a><strong> <\/strong>&#8220;<strong>Standard Test Method for Total Mass Loss and Collected Volatile Condensable Materials from Outgassing in a Vacuum Environment<\/strong>&#8220;). Basically, this is an outgassing test for materials in order to be able to decide whether these materials are suitable for use. <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As the name of the ASTM E595 standard implies, the outgassing test of a specific material is used to test both the total mass loss and the amount of volatile, condensable substances collected during the test. The measurement result of the total mass loss is also referred to as the TML value, whereby TML is the abbreviation of the English term &#8220;Total Mass Loss&#8221;. Specifically, the TML value represents the percentage of the original mass loss of the tested material caused by the outgassing test, whereby the material is exposed to high temperatures and a vacuum during the test.  <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There is also a value for the measurement result of the collected volatile <strong>, condensable substances<\/strong>, namely the <strong>CVCM value<\/strong>, where CVCM is the abbreviation for &#8220;Collected Volatile Condensable Materials&#8221;. The CVCM value expresses the percentage of volatile substances that condense during outgassing, i.e. that change from the gaseous state to the condensed state during the outgassing test. To be acceptable as a material according to NASA or the ASTM E595 standard, the TML value determined in the outgassing test must be equal to or less than 1 percent, and the CVCM value must not exceed 0.1 percent.  <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Henkel products according to NASA outgassing standards<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">NASA and the ASTM E595 standard therefore place high demands on the outgassing of materials. The <strong>following Henkel Adhesives products from the Henkel brands Loctite and Bergquist meet<\/strong> the <strong>outgassing standards of NASA and the<\/strong><strong>ASTM E595 standard<\/strong>: <\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Electrically conductive pastes<\/h3>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td><strong>Product name<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>TML value<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>CVCM value<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Tested curing time<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>LOCTITE\u00ae ABLESTIK 84-1LMI<\/td><td>0.12 %<\/td><td>0 %<\/td><td>1 hour at 150 \u00b0C<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>LOCTITE\u00ae ABLESTIK 84-1LWITH<\/td><td>0.14 %<\/td><td>0.01 %<\/td><td>1 hour at 150 \u00b0C<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>LOCTITE\u00ae ABLESTIK 8700E<\/td><td>0.3 %<\/td><td>0 %<\/td><td>2 hours at 121 \u00b0C<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>LOCTITE\u00ae ABLESTIK 967-1<\/td><td>0.54 %<\/td><td>0.01 %<\/td><td>2 hours at 100 \u00b0C<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>LOCTITE\u00ae ABLESTIK 976-1<\/td><td>0.71 %<\/td><td>0.1 %<\/td><td>1 hour at 150 \u00b0C<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>LOCTITE\u00ae ABLESTIK 2902<\/td><td>0.64 %<\/td><td>0.05 %<\/td><td>18 hours at 25 \u00b0C<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>LOCTITE\u00ae ABLESTIK 57C A\/B<\/td><td>0.36 %<\/td><td>0.03 %<\/td><td>0.5 hours at 150 \u00b0C<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>LOCTITE\u00ae ABLESTIK CT5047-2<\/td><td>0.39 %<\/td><td>0 %<\/td><td>25 hours at 25 \u00b0C?<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>LOCTITE\u00ae ABLESTIK QMI 529HT-LV<\/td><td>0.14 %<\/td><td>0.03 %<\/td><td>1 hour at 175 \u00b0C<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>LOCTITE\u00ae ABLESTIK 84-1LMINB<\/td><td>0.09 %<\/td><td>0.02 %<\/td><td>0.5 hours at 150 \u00b0C<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>LOCTITE\u00ae ABLESTIK 84-1LMIT1<\/td><td>0.12 %<\/td><td>0.01 %<\/td><td>2 hours at 125 \u00b0C<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>LOCTITE\u00ae ABLESTIK 84-1LMINB1<\/td><td>0.14 %<\/td><td>0.02 %<\/td><td>1 hour at 150 \u00b0C<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>LOCTITE\u00ae ABLESTIK ICP 9000<\/td><td>0.2 %<\/td><td>0.02 %<\/td><td>2 hours at 120 \u00b0C plus 2 hours at 200 \u00b0C<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>LOCTITE\u00ae ABLESTIK CE3103WLV<\/td><td>0.14 %<\/td><td>0.02 %<\/td><td>3 min. at 150 \u00b0C <\/td><\/tr><tr><td>LOCTITE\u00ae ABLESTIK 84-1LMISR4<\/td><td>0.36 %<\/td><td>0.01 %<\/td><td>1 hour at 175 \u00b0C<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>LOCTITE\u00ae ABLESTIK 71-1<\/td><td>0.25 %<\/td><td>0 %<\/td><td>0.5 hours at 150 \u00b0C plus 0.5 hours at 275 \u00b0C<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>LOCTITE\u00ae ABLESTIK 84-1LMIS<\/td><td>0.26 %<\/td><td>0.01 %<\/td><td>1 hour at 150 \u00b0C<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>LOCTITE\u00ae ABLESTIK 56C\/9<\/td><td>0.1 %<\/td><td>0.01 %<\/td><td>45 min. at 77 \u00b0C <\/td><\/tr><tr><td>LOCTITE\u00ae ABLESTIK 56C\/11<\/td><td>0.31 %<\/td><td>0.01 %<\/td><td>3 hours at 100 \u00b0C<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>LOCTITE\u00ae ABLESTIK JM7000<\/td><td>0.15 %<\/td><td>0.01 %<\/td><td>0.5 hours at 150 \u00b0C<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>LOCTITE\u00ae ABLESTIK XCP3302NS<\/td><td>0.18 %<\/td><td>0.01 %<\/td><td>2 hours at 170 \u00b0C<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>LOCTITE\u00ae ABLESTIK ICP3535M2<\/td><td>0.26 %<\/td><td>0.03 %<\/td><td>1 hour at 150 \u00b0C<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>LOCTITE\u00ae ABLESTIK ABP8064T<\/td><td>0.25 %<\/td><td>0.05 %<\/td><td>1 hour at 180 \u00b0C<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>LOCTITE\u00ae ABLESTIK 8175<\/td><td>0.18 %<\/td><td>0.01 %<\/td><td>2 hours at 120 \u00b0C<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Source: Henkel AG &amp; Co.
