One Component Epoxy

Optimizing Electrical & Electronic Insulation Properties for Epoxies

Epoxy resins are widely used as insulation material in electrical and electronic applications. They are employed as adhesives, sealants, coatings, impregnants, moldings and potting compounds to produce void-free insulation around components.

Understanding Viscosity for Epoxy Adhesives, Potting Compounds and Sealants

Viscosity is a key criterion in the epoxy selection process, for many bonding, sealing, coating, and potting applications. Master Bond epoxy adhesives are formulated in low, medium, and high / non-drip viscosities. Low viscosity systems excel in many kinds of applications, including potting, encapsulation, and impregnation.

How To: Optimizing the Glass Transition Temperature (Tg)

When a polymer system such as an epoxy adhesive, potting compound or sealant is heated, significant changes occur in mechanical strength properties and thermal, electrical and chemical resistance which do not necessarily recover upon cooling.

Advanced High Performance Epoxy Adhesives Revolutionize Structural Bonding

What are the factors to consider when you need to maximize adhesive bonding performance? In this white paper, Master Bond explores the different joint designs, surface preparations, polymer types and performance properties to consider when using structural polymer adhesives to join different parts together.

The information contained in this white paper is designed to simplify the selection process engineers face in meeting the multiple challenges for their application's requirements.

How to Evaluate Chemically Resistant Adhesives

Master Bond’s paper offers a guide to evaluating and selecting adhesive products exposed to harsh chemical environments. This article examines the importance of exposure variables, chemical interactions, testing and includes practical suggestions of procedures on how to avoid generalities in the selection process.

Additionally, Master Bond supplies data results from its own unique ten year database of chemical immersion. The information contained in this white paper will give you a head start in choosing the right adhesive for these most critical applications.

High Temperature Resistant Adhesives Beat the Heat

Selecting the right adhesive product for extreme temperature applications may seem as straightforward as reading temperature resistance values on data sheets. Some engineers will sometimes address temperature issues by simply selecting an adhesive rated for temperatures beyond their application's expected operating temperature. However, because suppliers test adhesives so differently, temperature resistance values on data sheets are notoriously inconsistent. Master Bond's latest white paper takes a closer look at some of these crucial issues and the key factors to consider when your adhesive application has to beat the heat or cope with the cold.

New One Component Flexible High Performance Epoxy Based Adhesive/Sealant Has Long Term Ambient Temperature Storage Capability

Master Bond Polymer System Supreme 10HTFL is a new one component flexible high performance epoxy resin based adhesive/sealant with an exceptionally wide service temperature range of 4K to +350°F making it suitable for cryogenic applications.
