FTV bubble problem of low-temperature glue


MCOTI uses 3 tricks to improve yield rate

In the electronic manufacturing production line that pursues ultimate efficiency, low temperature adhesive (Low Temp Adhesive)It has become a key material for chip mounting and precision dispensing. However, a hidden "process killer" often catches engineers off guard - the FTV (Frozen Thawing Void) phenomenon.That is, after the glue has been stored and transported on dry ice (-70℃), it will appear during the temperature recovery process.Uncontrollable bubbles, leading to dispensingScattered points, broken glue, or even the entire batch is scrapped. This is not a simple operational error, but an inevitable challenge to the physical properties of the material. MCOTI goes deep into the mechanism to dismantle and end this problem for you

In-depth dismantling: Where does the FTV bubble come from?



FTVThe essence is the physical gap caused by the mismatch of coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE).

When the hose experiences a dramatic temperature difference of "ultra-low temperature storage → room temperature recovery":

  • The colloid, hose wall, and piston rod have different shrinkage/expansion rates due to different materials.

  • Micron-level gaps occur between interfaces

  • Temperature recovery too fast or improper operation, air invades the gap and cannot be discharged, and eventually solidifies into bubbles

The consequences are not just cosmetic blemishes

  • short term:The dispensing amount fluctuates by more than ±10%, which directly leads to equipment calibration failure.

  • longThere are stress concentration points inside the adhesive layer, which reduces the long-term reliability of the product (especially in the fields of automotive electronics and industrial control)



MCOTI’s solution: full-link “prevention-control-rescue”



We not only sell glue, we also provideSystem solutionTurn yield fluctuations into stable output.

Source “prevention” – physical isolation

  • CTEmatchCustomize the hose material to reduce the interface gap from the source.

  • Double sealPiston + tip double locking, shipped from the factoryX-ray full inspection

Process “control” – refuse to rely on feelings 

key action


Correct operation


Wrong operation

Warming attitude

Leave it vertically (with the glue outlet facing down) ≥ 2H

horizontally/stacked

hand part

Hold the tail

Holding the tube body (body temperature interference)

Cold chain monitoring

Equipped with temperature recorder

Determine based on the remaining amount of dry ice

"Rescue" afterwards - low-cost recovery

What if there are bubbles?No scrapping required!

  • Centrifugal deaeration:Completed the adaptation test for mainstream centrifuges on the market, ready to use

  • Performance commitmentFor viscosity, strengthzero impact, compatible with mainstream devices.

3 tips for engineers



• Set standardsWrite the temperature recovery SOP into the work instructions

• Preparation toolsEquipped with vertical reheating rack + centrifuge, minimal investment and huge benefits

• Choose a partnerFind suppliers who can provide process support rather than traders who just sell goods
