High temperature epoxy offers chemical
resistance

Two component epoxy system for service above 500 deg F offers high bond strength to metallic and nonmetallic surfaces, and resists boiling acids and organic solvents.

Master Bond, Hackensack, N J, USA, has developed a new two component epoxy system for service above 500 deg F Called EP125, this compound is designed to withstand exposure to boiling acids, alkalis, salts, fuels and most organic solvents

It offers high bond strength to metallic and nonmetallic surfaces.

Typical lap shear strength are in the order of 2,400-2,500 lb/in2 at ambient temperatures.

After heat aging for 1,000 hours at 500 deg F slightly less than 50% of the original bond strength are retained.

Castings exhibit flexural strength of as high as 15,000 lb/in2 and flexural moduli or more than 500,000 lb/in2.

Master Bond EP125 has a convenient mix ratio of 2 to 1 by weight.

It requires an elevated temperature cure and cure cycles can be widely adjusted so as to best meet specific processing needs.

It has a storage stability of 6 months when stored at ambient temperatures in the original closed containers.

EP125 is available in 1/2 pint, pint, quart, gallon and 5 gallon pail kits. Request a free brochure from Master Bond ...
