General potting applications: power supplies, connectors, sensors, industrial controls, transformers, amplifiers, high voltage resistor packs, relays; adhe- sive/encapsulant for solar cells; adhesive handling beam lead integrated circuits during processing


Application Methods

Supplied as two-part liquid component kits comprised of Base/Curing Agent to be mixed in a 10:1 ratio by weight or volume; automated mixing and dispensing; manual mixing


Cure

75 minutes at 100 °C (212 °F)
30 minutes at 125 °C (257 °F)
20 minutes at 150 °C (302 °F)

Note: These data were collected on 50–100 gram samples of a lot believed to be typical and should be used as initial estimates of cure times. Times will vary slightly from batch to batch and can be longer or shorter due to thermal mass of your parts and your heating ramp rate. Pretesting is recommended to confirm adequate cure for your application.
For primerless adhesion products, cure time is based on time to reach durometer. Full adhesion may take more time at the cure temperature.
