Abstract
In accordance with the present invention, there are provided novel adhesive compositions which do not require solvent to provide a system having suitable viscosity for convenient handling and cure rapidly. The resulting thermosets are stable to elevated temperatures, are highly flexible, have low moisture uptake and good adhesion to both the substrate and the device attached thereto.
