have you ever looked at the translucent sticky muck inside IGBT modules?
I dont know what its called, but its very sticky - we referred to it as
"Japanese snot".

In my day it was called "greased pig snot", and was placed over
wirebonds before encapsulation in a plastic package. It stays
oooey-gooey and allows for expansion and contraction without fracture
of the wirebonds.

I love to cook with wine. Sometimes I even put it in the food.
