A gentle warming cycle of 52°C for 30 minutes prior to mixing components may be necessary. Crystallized epoxy components do not react as well as liquid components and should be re-dissolved prior to use for best results.Easy Mixing Pouch Instructions:Misc Properties:Hardness, Shore D83Shrinkage linear in/in0.003Lap shear strength, psi9400Volume Resistivity ohm cm= 0.0001Cure Schedule:2 minutes@ 120°C5 minutes@ 100°C12 hours@ 25°CGeneral Properties:Cure TypeHeat Cure or Room TemperatureBenefitsHigh strengthPerfect bondCold solder replacementMix Ratio100:7 Resin:HardenerPrices & Packaging
