Introduction

Master Bond one and two component structural adhesives offer remarkable bond strength to similar and dissimilar substrates.

Toughened, two component, room temperature curing epoxy EP21TDCHT has a convenient one to one mix ratio. Cure speed can be accelerated by the use of heat. EP21TDCHT features high physical strength properties, superior durability and chemical resistance. T-peel strength is 30 pli and tensile strength is > 3,500 psi. Elongation after cure is > 20% and Shore D hardness is > 60. Tensile modulus is 175,000 psi. Service operating temperature for this compound is -100°F to +350°F.

Master Bond EP21TDCHT has superb electrical insulation properties. Volume resistivity is 1014 ohm cm. Adhesion to similar and dissimilar substrates is excellent. It is particularly well suited for bonding substrates with different coefficients of expansion and contraction. Bonds can withstand exposure to thermal cycling and mechanical vibration, impact and shock.


EP21TDCHT is easy to apply and spreads smoothly after mixing. It has a working life of 90-100 minutes for a 100 gram mass. 85% of its maximum bond strength is developed within 48 hours. It has a 6 month minimum shelf life in original unopened container. It is available for use in pint, quart, gallon and 5 gallon container kits. It is also packaged in convenient gun applicators and flexible divider pouches.           

Adhesive Systems for Structural Bonding Applications

Master Bond Inc. formulates one and two component adhesive systems for structural bonding applications. These products are designed for resistance to cyclic fatigue, void filling, durability, improved load bearing capacity and high glass transition temperatures. They produce assemblies mechanically equivalent or stronger than conventional metal fastened parts at lower cost and weight. Enhanced systems have exceptional protection against corrosion, are cryogenically serviceable and contain nano fillers.
