EA-40™ Clear Amber Epoxy Adhesive for Industrial Bonding
EA-40™ Clear Amber Epoxy is a high-performance adhesive designed for industrial bonding and laminating applications. This unfilled low-viscosity epoxy adhesive can be spread easily in thin films that are almost transparent after curing, making it ideal for applications where clarity is essential.
Key Properties and Advantages
EA-40™ has a long pot life and cures in 24 hours at room temperature to provide good mechanical and electrical properties. By mixing 2A:1B by volume, EA-40™ will achieve greater heat resistance and improved physical properties. This versatility makes EA-40™ suitable for a wide range of assembly and repair applications, including electrical potting, jewelry assembly, and repairing plumbing fixtures.
Performance and Certification
EA-40™ provides highly moisture-resistant bonds meeting the performance requirements for Federal Specification MMM-A-188, Type III. This certification ensures that EA-40™ is suitable for demanding industrial applications where reliability is crucial.
Application and Safety Precautions
To achieve optimal bonding results, it is essential to follow proper surface preparation and application guidelines. Ensure a clean, dry surface, and wear safety glasses, long sleeves, and rubber gloves to minimize contamination risk. Use EA-40™ in a properly ventilated area, and store and use the material at room temperature (73°F/23°C).
Mixing and Curing
Measure equal amounts of Parts A and B (or 2A:1B) by volume into a clean mixing container. Mix thoroughly for 3 minutes, making sure to scrape the sides and bottom of the mixing container several times. Apply to the prepared surface and let cure for 24 hours. Applying mild heat will cure EA-40™ faster – 150°F/65°C for 6 hours.
