Production / Materials conductivity electrical epoxy insulation medical thermalMASTER BOND Supreme 11AOHTMed two component epoxy features thermal conductivity and electrical insulation. The system fully passes ISO 10993-5 testing for non-cytotoxicity and is recommended for bonding and sealing in medical device applications. Product has reliable electrical insulation properties with a volume resistivity exceeding 1014 ohm-cm at 75°F. It also exhibits thermal conductivity of around 4 to 5 BTU·in/ft²·hr·°F (0.58-0.72 W/m/K). The system provides high bond strength properties with a lap shear strength of 3,200-3,400 psi, a tensile strength of 7,000-8,000 psi and a compressive strength of 20,000-22,000 psi. This toughened formulation is designed to withstand thermal cycling and offers a wide service temperature range from -112°F to +400°F (-80°C to 204°C).
