Ellsworth Adhesives Europe is pleased to announce the addition of a new epoxy foam system to its material range.
Manufactured by Robnor ResinLab, PX590EF/NC is a two-component epoxy foam system which has a low density of approximately 0.3g/cm³.
The lightweight foam is particularly suitable for void-filling applications.
It has good compressive strength for backfilling of parts and can also be used in the casting of buoyant materials, or as a machinable epoxy foam for model making.
Thanks to its low density, only a relatively small amount of material is required to fill a large volume. This reduces material waste and makes PX590EF/NC a cost-effective choice.
Furthermore, PX590EF/NC from Robnor ResinLab offers good thermal performance post-cure and has an operating temperature of up to 150°c.
With a low viscosity of just 3000 (when mixed), this new material is very easy to process and work with. The system’s slow foaming reaction generates low pressure during expansion and has a cure time of 24 hours at room temperature.
Additionally, PX590EF/NC is also available as a three-component system. This allows users to adjust the foam density to suit their specific application requirements.
Robnor ResinLab PX590EF/NC is RoHS compliant and can be purchased in bulk, twin-packs or 2:1 ratio cartridges.
