What silently brings your car's brains to life—its cameras, displays, sensors, and control units? In this episode of Adhesion Matters, we reveal how advanced adhesives from Henkel are vital to making safe, connected, and high-performance vehicles possible.

What You’ll Discover:

• Electronics Everywhere—and the Heat They Generate
  As cars become more intelligent and electrified, electronics are packed into tight spaces—creating significant heat and high reliability demands. Solving that isn’t just about better engineering—it’s about smarter materials.
• Beyond Just Sticking Things Together
  From UV-cured adhesives that lock ADAS cameras in perfect alignment, to thermal gap pads that cool radar chips while blocking EMI, these are not ordinary glues—they are multi-functional material powerhouses.
• Specialized Solutions Across Vehicle Systems
  You’ll learn how Henkel's portfolio—including Loctite, Bergquist and Technomelt products—supports displays, sensors, control modules, and entire wire harnesses. Whether it’s liquid optically clear adhesives, underfill compounds, potting resins, or flexible hot melts, each plays a key role under the hood and inside the cabin.
• Tough Environments Demand Tough Chemistry
  Think extreme temperature swings, constant vibration, moisture, contaminants, and even road salt. These adhesives ensure your car’s electronics remain both functional and durable over years of use.

Why It Matters:

Your car’s high-tech capabilities don’t just depend on cutting-edge chips—they hinge on the materials holding them in place. This episode delivers a fascinating look at how adhesives are invisible champions of automotive innovation, safety, and longevity.
