The Application:

A customer is working on a bonding application involving small quartz elements wherein a fast set up and cure is critical. The other parameter is that the cured adhesive needs to be optically clear.

The Solution

Making certain assumptions, we recommended a few options to consider. They were: EP30-4, UV24TKLO and LED401LV.

EP30-4 is an optically clear, low viscosity, two component room temperature curing epoxy system.

UV24TKLO and LED401LV are optically clear, moderate viscosity systems. The assumption made here would be that the application areas are accessible to UV and LED light respectively.
