Bubbles and Voids

Air trapped inside the potting material can reduce protection, insulation, and appearance quality.

Cracking After Curing

The adhesive may be too hard, shrink too much, or not match thermal expansion.

Weak Waterproof Protection

The potting material may not resist moisture, condensation, rain, or outdoor exposure.

Heat Buildup

Some electronics need thermally conductive potting materials to move heat away from components.

Electrical Failure

The potting material may not provide enough insulation or dielectric strength.
