Adhesive cures very quickly at room temperature
Master Bond has developed an exceptionally fast curing two component epoxy adhesive for general purpose bonding and develops high bond strength exceeding 140kg/cm2 at room temperature.
Epoxy 'Super Glue' offers 3 minute set
A two component epoxy adhesive sets in 3 min for high performance general purpose bonding and cures in a few hours at ambient temperatures to develop a high bonding shear strength.
It has a service operating temperature range of from 4 deg K to 250 deg F.
It is designed to withstand exposure to thermal cycling.
Additionally EP30DP has a low water absorption, low moisture permeability and high hydrolytic stability.
Master Bond EP30DP cures at room temperatures or more rapidly at elevated temperatures.
It is easy to apply and has a mixed viscosity of >2,500 cps.
Its mix ratio is 10 to 1 by weight.
EP30DP is 100% reactive and does not contain any solvents or diluents.
It can be readily cast in thick cross sections (e g, several inches) without the development of undue exotherm during cure.
It also can be more easily removed after cure than conventional epoxies.
EP30DP has a tensile strength of 1,450 lbf/in2 and an elongation at break of 80%.
Its shore D hardness is 45.
Particularly noteworthy is its superior electrical insulation properties.
It has a dielectric constant of 3.8 and dielectric strength of >420V/mil.
It also exhibits outstanding chemical resistance properties.
EP30DP fully meets USP class VI requirements.
It is available for use in 1/2 pint, pint, quart, gallon, and 5 gallon container kits. Request a free brochure from Master Bond ...
