MASTER BOND Supreme 3HTS-80 one part, silver filled epoxy adhesive is not premixed and frozen and features an unlimited working life at room temperature. Product cures at 175°F to 185°F within 2-3 hours – unlike typical heat activated epoxies that require 250°F to 350°F to cure. Curing at such temperatures makes this system advantageous for bonding applications involving heat sensitive substrates. Product has a volume resistivity of less than 0.05 ohm-cm. Upon curing, it exhibits a hardness of 50-60 Shore D and a high thermal conductivity over 20-25 BTU•in/(ft2•hr•°F) [2.9-3.6 W/(m•K)]. This 100% reactive epoxy bonds well to metals, composites, glass, ceramics, and many plastics.
