Description for Elantas (Altana) Conathane EN-2523
A two-part, filled polyurethane casting system. It consists of two low viscosity liquids that have low vapor pressure and good handling properties at room temperature. Low exotherm, low stress build-up during cure, low shrinkage, and excellent electrical properties are other outstanding features of this system.Brand Conathane, Cytec Chemical Resistance Aliphatic hydrocarbons, Chemical Resistance: Fluid Resistance: Salt water, Chemical Resistance: Mild acids, Bases Application Type Casting 1 Part or 2 Part 2-Part Material Form Liquid Industry Electrical, Electronic Manufacturer Elantas (Altana) Chemistry Polyurethane, Filled Polyol Blend Cure Method Part A/Part B Cure Temperature (°C) 25, 80 Cure Time (min) 10,080, 960 Viscosity (cPs) Low, 2,800 Color Black, Tan Arc Resistance (sec) Arc resistance Fungus Resistance Non nutrient Fungus resistance High Temperature Resistance (°C) 130 Low Temperature Resistance (°C) -65 Volume Resistivity (O) 3.4e13 (ohms/cm), 3.7e12 (ohms/cm), 3.4e11 (ohms/cm) Key Specifications UL Recognized, Mil-Spec (United States Military Standard): MIL-E-5272C; MIL-STD-810B -

Best Practices for Elantas (Altana) Conathane EN-2523
-
Mixing
The two components should be mixed thoroughly in metal or glass containers using metal or glass stirrers. Degassing of the mixed material should be accomplished at room temperature to 60°C at =5mm Hg vacuum. Containers should be large enough to allow for frothing during degassing. Any material or container that could introduce water into the system should be avoided.
