What Is ASTM D2739 Conductive Adhesive Volume Resistivity?
ASTM D 2739 is the standard test method for volume resistivity of cured resin-based conductive adhesives. This test method measures the ability of an adhesive layer to conduct electrical current through its volume when used between metallic adherends.
The method is of particular relevance to applications such as electronic packaging where the adhesive provides an electrical path, such as conductive bonding and interconnect systems. ASTM D2739 provides standardized data on measuring electrical resistance under a defined geometry for comparing adhesive formulations and verifying manufacturing quality.

Our ASTM D2739 Testing Procedure
Specimen Preparation & Curing
Conductive adhesive is applied between two metallic plugs and cured to form a controlled-thickness sandwich specimen.
1Conditioning
Cured specimens are conditioned at standard laboratory conditions (≈23 °C, 50% RH) for a specified duration.
2Resistance Measurement
Electrical resistance between metallic adherends is measured using a Kelvin bridge or equivalent precision instrument.
3Resistivity Calculation
Volume resistivity (ρv) is calculated from measured resistance and specimen geometry.
