Potting & Encapsulating - Princeton University

Transcription

Potting & EncapsulatingPotting and encapsulating compounds are used to provide mechanical reinforcement to housed assemblies,to fill large voids, and to protect components from the effects of exposure to chemicals, moisture, mechanicalshock, and vibration. Sealing components with potting and encapsulating compounds prevents corrosion andensures long-term integrity of the device.Variables to consider when selecting a potting orencapsulating material include: Viscosity of uncured compound Dispensing requirements Device operating temperature Desired chemical resistance Desired thermal conductivity Desired flame retardance Hardness of cured product Overall costThere are a variety of potting and encapsulatingcompounds to choose from – epoxy, hot melt, silicone,and urethane. The thermal properties of epoxyand silicone systems make them ideally suited forapplications exposed to temperatures above 125 C. If asoft, flexible material is needed, particularly at lowtemperatures, then a urethane, silicone or hot meltmaterial may be used.What is the best product for my application?The following chart will work best when selecting apotting or encapsulating compound. This chart isintended to serve as a general guideline to help youdetermine which categories are best suited for yourapplication. The data presented represents typicalproperties for each product category; however,individual product properties may differ. It is suggestedthat, based on the information provided, you considerat least the two best product categories that meet yourapplication criteria. Individual product information canthen be found on the pages that follow to help younarrow your search.74This chart should not be used to specify products without specifictesting. It is recommended that you conduct on-part testing toensure product performance before specifying any adhesive.Loctite Adhesives and Sealants Product Specialists are available toassist you with new product designs, or to help you re- engineer anexisting application for improved performance and cost savings.They can also set up testing of your parts at the Henkel CustomerEngineering Center.

POTTING &ENCAPSULATINGEpoxies & PolyurethanesEpoxies& PolyurethanesThere are a variety of Loctite potting and encapsulating compounds to choose from – epoxy, hot melt,polyurethane, and silicone. Loctite potting and encapsulating compounds are designed to protect electricalcomponents from the effects of exposure to chemicals, moisture, thermal shock, mechanical shock, andvibration. Sealing components with Loctite potting and encapsulating compounds prevents corrosion andensures long-term integrity of electrical devices.EPOXIES & POLYURETHANESLoctite Hysol potting and encapsulating compounds are two-partepoxy and polyurethane systems formulated to offer a wide range ofperformance characteristics matched to specific application requirements.Any epoxy resin can be combined with any epoxy hardener to create amixed system. The same applies to the polyurethane resins and hardeners.LOCTITE HYSOL EPOXIESHARDENERSRESINSPackageItemPRODUCTNumber Type & SizePackageWeightKeyFeatures3140 39944 1 gallon pail39945* 5 gallon pail12 lbs.65 lb.GeneralPurpose3141 3994739948*1 gallon pail5 gallon pail12 lbs.63 lbs.HighTemperature3142 3995039951*1 gallon pail5 gallon pail16 lbs.65 lbs.ThermallyConductive3145 4051240511*1 gallon pail5 gallon pail13 lbs.65 lbs.FlameRetardant3160 39958*5 gallon pail40 lbs.GlossySurface Finish3162 3996039962*1 quart can5 gallon pail1.8 lbs.36 lbs.Fast Cure3163 399643996539966*1 quart can1 gallon pail5 gallon pail1.7 lbs.7 lbs.38 lbs.ExcellentAdhesion3164 3996939970*1 gallon pail5 gallon pail7 lbs.40 lbs.GeneralPurpose3165V3939539973*1 quart can1 gallon pail1.7 lbs.7 lbs.LowShrinkageHARDENERSRESINSL O C T I T E H Y S O L P O LY U R E T H A N E SPRODUCTItemPackageNumber Type & SizeKeyFeatures3173 399843998539986*1 quart can1 gallon pail5 gallon pail2.5 lbs.10 lbs.50 lbs.GeneralPurpose3182 3999539996*39997*1 gallon pail5 gallon pail55 gallon pail12 lbs.62 lbs.625 lbs.Fast Cure3183 3999839999*1 gallon pail5 gallon pail7.5 lbs.37 lbs.GeneralPurpose3184 3939839397*1 gallon pail5 gallon pail12 lbs.625 lbs.FlameRetardant* Made-to-order items.76PackageWeightDISPENSING OPTIONSLoctite Mix Nozzles areplastic, disposable nozzlesthat attach directly to Loctite dispensers.
