Easily mixed polymer cures at room temperature
The epoxy resin provides high physical strength properties, adhesion and resistance to solvents, water and alkalis.
It offers high bond strength to metallic and nonmetallic surfaces.
Typical lap shear strength are in the order of 16.6 to 17.3MPa at ambient temperatures.
After heat aging for 1kh at 260C, slightly less than 50% of the original bond strength is retained.
Castings exhibit flexural strength of as high as 100MPa and flexural modulus of more than 3400MPa.
Master Bond EP125 has a convenient mix ratio of 2:1 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 half-pint, pint, quart, gallon and 5 gallon pail kits. Request a free brochure from Master Bond ...
