What is the curing time for the resin under different temperatures?
At 5 °C, the pot life is approximately 35 minutes, reducing to 18 minutes at 23 °C and just 9 minutes at 40 °C, ensuring quick application in various conditions.
How does the hydrophobic behaviour of the resin benefit its performance?
The hydrophobic behaviour during the curing stage minimises moisture absorption, which enhances the longevity and performance of the encapsulated components in damp environments.
What is the significance of the dielectric strength rating in this application?
The dielectric strength of 36 kV/mm indicates the resin’s ability to withstand high voltage levels without failure, providing essential protection for electrical components against breakdown and short circuits.
What are the implications of the resin’s volume shrinkage?
With a volume shrinkage of only 3.4%, the resin maintains a secure encapsulation of joints and components, reducing the risk of gaps that could lead to moisture ingress or contamination over time.
How should I store the resin to ensure optimal shelf life?
To maintain its integrity, the resin should be stored in sealed packaging at temperatures between 10 °C and 40 °C, with humidity levels below 75% for a shelf life of at least 36 months.
