One Part Epoxy Adhesive Has Ultra Low Thermal Resistance — LED professional

Supreme 18TC maintains high bond strength properties even when exposed to hostile environmental conditions, at both high and low temperatures. It bonds well to a wide variety of substrates including metals, composites, ceramics and plastics. It has a high strength profile consisting of tensile lap shear strength of 2,200-2,400 psi, tensile strength 6,000-7,000 psi, t-peel strength of 5-10 pli and a compressive strength of 22,000-24,000 psi.

As a one part system, it requires no mixing. Its working life is essentially unlimited. To obtain optimal performance properties, heat cure for 60-90 minutes at 250-300°F followed by a post cure of a few hours at 350°F. Supreme 18TC features low shrinkage, a low CTE and a high degree of dimensional stability. This system is also a reliable electrical insulator.

Supreme 18TC is designed to withstand thermal cycling and shock. It is serviceable over the wide temperature range of 4K to +400°F. This formulation is available for use in a variety of standard packaging options in sizes ranging from ounces to gallons.
