STYCAST US 5529
Harmonization Code : 3907.30.00.40 | Epoxy Mold Compounds containing by weight more than 70 % silicon dioxide
Main features
- Low-Viscosity Potting Flow
- Extended 45-Minute Working Time
- Flexible Cured Polyurethane
Product Description
LOCTITE STYCAST US 5529 is a two-component, mineral-filled polyurethane potting compound with flexible cured behavior, low viscosity, and a long working time. Part A and Part B mix at 1:4.81 by volume or 15:85 by weight. The mixed system has a typical viscosity of 2,400 cP and a 45-minute working time at 23 deg C for a 300 g mass. Recommended cure is 12 to 24 hours at 22 to 30 deg C, with an alternate 1-to-3-hour cure at 65 to 85 deg C. The cured black material reaches Shore A85 hardness, 540 psi tensile strength, and 0.335 W/(m K) thermal conductivity for potting and encapsulation.
Key features
- Low mixed viscosity: Typical mixed viscosity is 2,400 cP at 23 deg C.
- Forty-five-minute working time: A 300 g mass provides 45 minutes of working time at 23 deg C.
- Flexible cured polyurethane: The cured potting compound is flexible and reaches Shore A85 hardness.
Applications
Potting and encapsulation.
