- Electrical Insulation After Cure
Product Description
LOCTITE EA E-60NC is a two-part, flowable epoxy potting and encapsulation compound with a 60-minute working life. The 1:1 volume mix cures at room temperature to form a rigid black encapsulant for electronic assemblies. Its low-viscosity format is intended for potting, encapsulation, housing assembly, and component attachment, while the cured material provides electrical insulation plus environmental and chemical resistance. The product is used for electrical components and board-level assemblies that require a flowable epoxy with extended handling time before cure.
Key features
- Flowable potting compound: The low-viscosity mixed epoxy is formulated for potting and encapsulation.
- Extended Potting Work Life: Typical working life is 60 minutes for the mixed potting material before cure.
- Cured Dielectric Strength: Typical dielectric breakdown strength is 20 kV/mm under IEC 60243-1 after a seven-day cure at 23 deg C.
Applications
Applications include potting and encapsulating electrical components, component attachment to boards, and housing assembly bonding.
