FAQ
Epoxy potting and encapsulation compounds are a type of thermosetting adhesive that consists of epoxy resin and hardener. They are the best type of adhesive for glueing metals, glass, concrete, ceramics, wood and many plastics. Epoxy systems provide strong adhesion to various surfaces due to polar attraction or direct bonds called the epoxide reactive process. It needs a curing agent and curing time to set into a solid state.
Epoxy adhesives are either one-component or two-component adhesives which are further classified based on their properties such as thermal curing, room temperature curing, viscosity hardness, working life, optically clarity etc.
Compared to other adhesive systems, epoxy adhesives offer some of the highest strengths along with superior resistance to chemicals and corrosion. Epoxies can also be used for casting or filling voids. Special grades offer high impact strength, good toughness, electrical and thermal conductivity, optical clarity, biocompatibility, cryogenic serviceability and flame retardance. The ability to modify an epoxy adhesive to meet specific end properties, makes it a versatile choice for most industrial applications.
Epoxy adhesives are highly versatile and are used in many industries due to their excellent bonding capabilities. Some of the common industries epoxy adhesives are used in are electronic, medical, optical, oil and chemical, automotive and aerospace among other industries. In addition to bonding, epoxy systems can also be used for sealing, coating, potting, encapsulation and impregnation applications.
You should make sure that the surface to be bonded with epoxy adhesive should be clean and dry. The surfaces need to be cleaned of any contamination such as dust, grease, oil, or wax with the help of the proper solvent. You can read our whitepaper on surface preparation to get a detailed insight on how to prepare various substrates.
The curing time is completely dependent on the choice of the epoxy adhesive. Fast curing systems can cure as quickly as 5 minutes, whereas slower curing systems can take much longer. To know the exact cure schedule of the epoxy adhesive you are using, kindly refer to the technical data sheet of the product.
