Dow Corning and Delphi received the award for Dow Corning®
EA-7100 Adhesive, a product initially developed for Delphi, which
was grappling with several adhesion challenges. The adhesive is
based on novel silicone chemistry that significantly expands design
options for automotive electronics and other applications by
enabling strong bonds to a wide variety of substrates. Formulated
with patented new silicone chemistry, Dow Corning EA-7100
Adhesive offers more options for designing next-generation
electronics including control units, sensors, lighting and display
modules, and provides advantages such as greatly accelerated
processing speed, and reduced energy use.
"This award recognizes what Dow Corning does best every day -
working alongside customers to develop innovative silicone-based
products that solve challenges and create opportunities for our
customers to compete and win," said Ganesh Kailasam, senior vice
president and chief technology officer. “While this technology is
helping advance the automotive electronics industry, there are
countless other applications that could benefit.”
“The R&D 100 awards are often referred to as the “Oscars of
Innovation,” and highlight significant technology inventions of the
past year. The award has historically honored many of the leading
minds in invention, including Dean Kamen, Elon Musk,
Larry Page, Buzz Aldrin, astronaut Scott J. Kelly,
Kary Mullis, and Hugh Herr.
