Thermoset™ EP-20/71 Epoxy System Where to Buy
Product Information
Thermoset™ EP-20/71 epoxy system is a two-component, general purpose system for use in many applications including adhesive, laminating and electrical/electronic insulation.
Handling and cured properties of the two-component epoxy system are dependent on the hardener used with Thermoset EP-20 epoxy resin.
Shelf Life
Shelf life of Thermoset EP-20 resin is two years when stored at 25°C in original, unopened container. The material container must be periodically rotated to prevent settling.
Shelf life of Thermoset Hardener No. 71 is 18 months when stored in a well ventilated area at 25°C in original, unopened container.
Features and Benefits
Low Exotherm – exhibits low exothermic heat rise during room temperature cure.
Environmentally Resistant – cured system provides excellent mechanical and thermal shock resistance; retains flexibility even after severe heat aging.
