Thermally Conductive Potting Compound-Formulated for large potting applications

August 26, 2019

A major challenge for engineers is finding cost-effective Thermally Conductive Potting Compounds for medium to large potting applications. Many of the commercially available high performance products are not viable options due to the cost that they add to the electronic devices.  Also, most potting compounds create too much heat when curing in large mass sizes. […]

Fast Curing Toughened Epoxy Adhesive

February 5, 2019

Epoxy adhesives offer many advantages over traditional mechanical fasteners such as rivets, nuts and bolts, pins, or welding.  However, conventional two part epoxies that offer excellent bonds can be slow curing.  The new 10-3041 Toughened Epoxy Adhesive develops a 3,000 psi lap shear strength within four hours.  Within minutes the material is dry to the touch. Epoxy adhesives […]

STRESS FREE POTTING WITH LOW EXOTHERM EPOXY

December 13, 2018

Epoxy potting compounds are used to protect electronics from dust, moisture and chemicals. They can also insulate, conduct heat or provide protection from physical or thermal shock. Filling a large electronic assembly with an epoxy potting compound can be especially challenging due to the large mass. Selecting the wrong epoxy mixture can lead to a […]
