Grease & Epoxy
Ther-O-Bond
TM
1500 is a versatile epoxy casting system developed
for high performance, production potting and encapsulating appli-
cations where low shrinkage and rapid air evacuation are required.
This formulation has a very low surface tension and a flowable 
viscosity, which affords excellent air release.Ther-O-Bond
TM
1500
adhers to rigid plastics and laminates, metals and ceramics, has 
a low coefficient of thermal expansion and is readily machined 
and shaped with ordinary shop tools. The fully cured epoxy system
is an excellent electrical insulator which provides good resistance
to electrolysis, leakage and corrosion room water, weather, gases
and chemical compounds.

Adhesive
Mix ratio by weight, 100 to 15
resin to hardener:
Mixed viscosity @ 25°C, cps: 1000 - 1500
Work-life @ 25°C 45 Minutes
Gel time @ 25°C 3-6 Hours
Cure schedule @ 25°C 8 Hours
Cure schedule @ 65°C 1 Hour
Cure schedule @ 100°C 0.5 Hour
For smaller applications, Ther-O-Bond
TM
1600 produces a stable,
durable, high-impact bond, with good heat transfer characteris-
tics. It is a thixotropic (smooth paste) thermally conductive epoxy
system used for staking thermistors, diodes, resistors, integrated
circuits and other heat sensitive components to printed circuit
boards.This two-part adhesive develops strong, durable, high
impact bonds at room temperature, which improve heat transfer
while maintaining electrical insulation. Ther-O-bond
TM
1600 bonds
readily to itself, to metals, silica, steatie, alumina, sapphire and
other ceramics, glass, plastics and many other materials because
its coefficient of thermal expansion provides a good match for
those materials over a fairly wide temperature range.
