Two component epoxy allows adjustment of properties through mix ratio
Master Bond Inc. Polymer System EP21
HACKENSACK, N. J. - A unique two component, room temperature curing, epoxy adhesive called EP21 has been introduced by Master Bond Inc. Polymer System EP21 has the unusual characteristic of allowing an adjustment of the properties of the cured system by altering the mix ratio. Adding more A part (e.g. 2:1 mix ratio) gives a more rigid cure while adding more B part (e.g. 1:2 mix ratio) gives a more forgiving cure.
EP21 produces high strength, durable bonds which hold up well to thermal cycling and resist many chemicals including water, oils, fuels, acids, bases and salts. It is serviceable over the wide temperature range of -60°F to +250°F. It bonds well to a variety of substrates including metals, glass, ceramics, wood, rubber, and many plastics and has excellent gap filling properties.
Once cured, EP21 is an excellent electrical insulator. This exceptionally versatile system can be widely used in the electronic, electrical, computer, metalworking, appliance, automotive, chemical and other OEM industries. The cured adhesive fully meets the requirements of MIL-A-81236 (OS) and MMM-A-187B among others.
EP21 is 100% reactive and does not contain any diluents or solvents. While the standard color of the cured material is gray, a wide variety of additional color choices are also available. It is available in pint, quart, gallon and 5 gallon pail container kits.
