CONAPOXY® Series Provides Superior Flame Retardant Characteristics, is Non-Abrasive, and Delivers Low Viscosity in 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.
