LOCTITE® EA 9496
LOCTITE® EA 9496, also known as Hysol Adhesive 9496, is a two-component, room-temperature curing, low-shrinkage epoxy potting resin system. The product combines low shrinkage during cure with high thermal conductivity, making it suitable for low-stress applications such as potting electronic components.
The mixed adhesive forms a black opaque paste and develops complete cure after three days at room temperature. It achieves handling strength in 6-7 hours at 22 deg C, with elevated temperatures available to accelerate cure where required by the process.
