Experienced engineers have discovered that adhesives are critical to sensor assemblies; and adhesives can be effective for bonding sensors to almost any surface. Sensor components which generate heat will benefit from a thermally conductive adhesive, which can route excess heat to an outer case or heat sink to protect sensitive equipment; in rare instances the adhesive itself can dissipate heat. Temperature sensors need a thermally conductive adhesive to ensure reliable readings. These types of compounds are filled with a material that matches the thermal expansion rates of the materials around it to prevent delamination from thermal stress.
