Hi Folks, I have been playing around with some hot-melt adhesives and am somewhat surprised at how well some of them bond to wire insulation, board materials, etc. I really don't know anyone in the government or aerospace biz that is using this bonding or potting method, and I am wondering 'how come?' there may be some very obvious reasons for this, and I'd like to know them. OR, if anyone is using hotmelts with success, I would enjoy hearing of it.
