Technical Data Sheet
Translucent Epoxy, Encapsulating & Potting Compound
Description
832C
potting and encapsulating compound
is a general purpose, hard, translucent amber two-part epoxy that
offers extreme environmental, mechanical and physical protection for printed circuit boards and electronic
assemblies.
832C is specifically designed for applications where visual inspection is required. Due to its low mixed
viscosity, it can easily penetrate small gaps and cavities. It also provides excellent electrical insulation and
protects components from static discharges, vibration, abrasion, thermal shock, environmental humidity, salt
water, fungus, and many harsh chemicals.
This epoxy has a convenient 2:1 volume mix ratio, making it compatible with most dispensing equipment.
832C can be cured at room temperature or higher.
