Master Bond EP17HT-LO One component epoxy system for bonding, sealing, coating and casting

Product Description: Master Bond EP17HT-LO is a one component, heat cured epoxy system for bonding, sealing, coating and encapsulating. It features good physical properties, electrical insulation profile and chemical resistance even with heat exposure to 650°F. Its glass transition temperature (Tg) is 225°C. This system is also has very low exotherm upon curing and can be used in castings and encapsulations well beyond ½ inch in thickness. The minimum curing temperature for EP17HT-LO is 300°F with faster cures attainable at higher temperatures. EP17HT-LO is 100% reactive and contains no solvents or diluents. EP17HT-LO bonds well to similar as well as dissimilar substrates such as metal, ceramics, plastics and composites. It has resistance to many chemicals such as acids, bases, salts, fuels, oils and many solvents. Shrinkage upon cure is minimal. It is serviceable from -80°F to +650°F. This system is tan in color. EP17HT-LO retains its electrical insulation properties, even at higher temperatures. It should be noted, in order to obtain the optimum properties, a post cure of 2-12 hours at 350°F is recommended. As mentioned above, EP17HT-LO meets NASA low outgassing specifications. It is widely used in a variety of applications in the aerospace, oil and chemical processing, optical, opto-electronic and specialty OEM industries. Product Advantages: Single component system; no mixing prior to use. Contains no solvents, diluents or volatiles Easy application; only positive contact pressure required during heat cure Good tensile, shear and compressive strength properties Certified to NASA low outgassing standards High temperature resistance.
