Variety of Electrical and Electronic Designs
West Paterson, NJ – August 20, 2008 – Cytec Industries Inc.
introduces the CONAP CONAPOXY series that passes the rigorous UL
94 5VA and UL 94 V-O requirements to provide a level of
insulation and protection not commonly found in similar potting
and casting systems. CONAPOXY FR-1047/EA-87, FR-1047/DPEA-25652,
and DPFR-29589/DPEA-25652 exhibit superior flame retardant
characteristics and overall performance, which make these
systems well suited for use in potting pumps, coils, stators,
transformers, capacitors, and other electrical and electronic
devices.
CONAPOXY FR-1047/EA-87, FR-1047/DPEA-25652, and
DPFR-29589/DPEA-25652 have excellent resistance to thermal
shock, low exothermic temperatures, and outstanding arc
resistance. In addition to having strong flame retardant
characteristics, the systems are non-abrasive and provide low
room temperature processing viscosity.
CONAPOXY FR-1047/EA-87 has a four-hour gel time and a mixed
viscosity of 6,800 cps at 25 C. CONAPOXY FR-1047/DPEA-25652 has
a 90-minute gel time and a mixed viscosity of 4,000 cps at 25
C, and DPFR-29589/DPEA-25652 has a 70-minute gel time and a
mixed viscosity of 6,800 cps at 25 C. All three products are
filled with a non-abrasive filler to reduce wear on machine
metering/dispensing.
